Hearing Loss Association of America · Central Oklahoma Chapter
Thank you for listening, Oklahoma.
For 35 years, volunteers of the Central Oklahoma Chapter helped neighbors with hearing loss stay connected. The chapter has now closed. This site keeps its story and points you to the people still doing this work.
Our mission
To open the world of communication to people with hearing loss by providing information, education, support and advocacy.
Living with hearing loss?
You still don't have to do it alone.
Our meetings have ended, but Oklahoma has strong organizations for testing, technology, phone access, advocacy and community.
