\t\t\t\tWow, what a month it’s been! We kicked off Better Hearing and Speech Month Monday May 2nd in all three offices and hit the ground running with a month filled with awareness and celebration. During the month we handed out 4000 earplugs<\/a> and logged over 350+ hours of volunteer work and involvement from our staff members! Some of our favorite events included our “chEAR” section at the Kirkland Half Marathon and 5K<\/a>, a special presentation “An Evening with the King<\/a>” that hosted wonderful questions and awareness on stuttering, the new technology special event<\/a> for our patients followed by our first ever Advanced Communication Workshop<\/a> hosted in partnership with the University of Washington! We topped off the month of events with four days of hearing awareness at the Northwest Folklife Festival<\/a> letting concertgoers know how important it is to protect their ears!<\/p>\n
