Surviving the Holidays with Hearing Loss – Rap Session & Potluck!

Our annual rap session is the perfect way to kick off the holiday season, as we discuss how to get through the holiday season with hearing loss. This year, we’ll engage in some role playing — acting out possible scenarios to help illustrate communication and coping strategies. It should be fun and educational, so please join us! Feel free to bring a dish, dessert or beverages for our potluck lunch following the meeting. Meeting newsletter can be viewed here.

The quarterly newsletter of HLAA-CA, the Hearing Loss Association of America, California State Association, is edited by our very own Grace Tiessen. Inside this edition, you’ll find articles from HLAA-LA chapter members Mitzi Shpak (page 2), and Liz Lesan (page 8), who shares her experiences as a first-time attendee at the HLAA National Convention last June. There’s also a lovely, well-deserved tribute to Nanci Linke-Ellis, who is retiring from her position as HLAA-CA SoCal Chapter Coordinator.
