Welcome to the National Association for Baby and Child Hearing Advocacy (NABCHA). Our organization is dedicated to promoting the well-being and care of infants and children with hearing difficulties.

Through our advocacy efforts, we strive to ensure that every child with hearing loss receives the necessary support and resources for optimal development.

Our Mission

At NABCHA, our mission is to be the leading voice for baby and child hearing advocacy. We work tirelessly to raise awareness about the importance of early detection and intervention for hearing loss in infants and children.

Our organization aims to collaborate with professionals, policymakers, and parents to ensure that children with hearing difficulties have access to comprehensive services and support.

Advocacy Initiatives

NABCHA is committed to advocating for the rights of children with hearing loss at local, national, and international levels. Our advocacy initiatives focus on the following key areas:.

1. Early Detection and Diagnosis

Early identification of hearing loss is crucial for the overall development of a child. We advocate for universal newborn hearing screening programs to ensure that every infant undergoes a hearing screening shortly after birth.

Through early detection and diagnosis, appropriate interventions can be initiated promptly, maximizing a child’s potential.

2. Access to Quality Healthcare

Children with hearing loss require specialized healthcare services. NABCHA works to ensure that healthcare providers are knowledgeable about the unique needs of children with hearing difficulties.

We advocate for comprehensive insurance coverage for audiological evaluations, hearing aids, cochlear implants, and other assistive devices to ensure affordability and accessibility for families.

3. Inclusive Education

Education is a fundamental right for all children, including those with hearing loss. NABCHA advocates for inclusive education policies that support the integration of children with hearing difficulties into mainstream schools.

We work with educators and policymakers to ensure that appropriate accommodations and support services are available to facilitate a child’s learning and academic success.

4. Parental Support and Empowerment

Parents play a crucial role in the journey of a child with hearing loss. NABCHA strives to provide parents with resources, support, and guidance to navigate the challenges associated with raising a child with hearing difficulties.

We advocate for access to parent counseling, support groups, and information about communication options to empower parents in making informed decisions for their child.

5. Public Awareness and Education

In order to eliminate misconceptions and stigma surrounding hearing loss, NABCHA conducts public awareness campaigns and educational initiatives.

We believe that raising awareness about the prevalence of hearing loss in children and the importance of early intervention can lead to better understanding and acceptance in society.
