How The Read Our Lips Program Helps
Improving your ability to see what someone is saying helps to improve communication in daily life, especially at times when there is background noise, like in coffee shops, restaurants, at family gatherings, and in meetings. It is a key part of communication for those with hearing loss.
Communication means feeling connected.
When we can see what’s being said, we feel a part of what’s happening.
We believe that the antidote to isolation is inclusion; that everyone should be empowered to partake in the stories that weave the fabric of our lives. We’re not just teaching, we’re helping open doors to a more confident life.
See speech, feel connected.
