NVRC Outreach specialist, Marla Dougherty, presents a free 3-part series called I Can’t Hear You! for those aging into hearing loss.

Participants will learn how to recognize a hearing loss, understand testing and hearing aids, learn about good communication techniques and what listening devices are available through the state technology assistance program.
