Listen and Talk provides equitable access to research based Listening and Spoken Language services for deaf or hard-of-hearing children and their families. Services are provided from birth through youth in our Birth to Three, Blended Classrooms, Audiology and Outreach programs. Approximately 30% of our annual budget is met through the generosity of donors, corporations, and foundations, with philanthropic contributions.
