Better Hearing & Speech Month
May is Better Hearing and Speech Month! Started by the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association, this nation-wide celebration provides opportunities to raise awareness about communication disorders and promote treatment that can improve the quality of life for those who experience problems with speaking, understanding, or hearing.
During the month of May, our goal is to raise awareness about communication disorders and how we empower people in East Tennessee to live their lives to the fullest.
