The Hearing House - enabling deaf children to speak

IslaIsla was born profoundly deaf and received cochlear implants when she was five months old. Each week she comes to The Hearing House for specialised auditory-verbal therapy, which helps her learn to listen and speak like hearing children. Isla is the new face of deaf children in New Zealand, with 92% of parents in Auckland choosing to encourage their deaf children to speak.

LET'S MAKE SOMETHING PERFECTLY CLEAR...



Children who are deaf CAN learn to listen and speak.

 

The Hearing House is a charity for deaf children and their families.
Our mission is to enable deaf or hearing impaired children to listen and speak. We aim to give deaf children the ability to fulfil their potential and live an independent life in a hearing and speaking world.
