Empower Yourself: Changing Mindsets about Hearing Loss
The World Health Organization (WHO) named March 3rd World Hearing Day, aiming to raise awareness about hearing loss and promote ear and hearing care globally. This year's theme is "Changing Mindsets: empower yourself to make ear and hearing care a reality for all." It is a powerful theme because it puts the person with hearing loss in the driver's seat, acknowledging that the attitudes we hold about our hearing loss and the actions we take to advocate for ourselves are key to how well we live with it.
