(53 pages) In this Handbook is everything — literally everything! — you will need to advocate effectively for hearing loops and better hearing assistance. Compiled by the passionate Hearing Loss Association of America (HLAA), Get in the Hearing Loop (GITHL) advocacy committee, you will find numerous documents and brochures that explain what hearing loops (technically called induction loops) are, why they are so crucial to people with hearing loss, sample requests for proposals, technical documents on loop installation, best practices, sample slide presentations on loops, a summary of disability rights laws, and much, much more.
With this Handbook, you can confidently and knowledgeably approach venues in your community and provide them with accurate and easily readable information on hearing loops. You can be a highly effective advocate for this incredible technology that helps many hearing loss people enjoy theater, movies, lectures, and worship services. Presently, no other assistive listening technology is as easy to use or delivers such clear sound.
