Yep...Phoenix in June sounds hot doesn't it? Last year it was in New Orleans! Thank heavens for air conditioning!! Every national HLAA convention is spectacular. There is so much to learn about hearing loss and how it affects people. HLAA provides that opportunity. You can see by Mikepa's response that smaller events are held in many other places. HLAA chapters are all run by volunteers. No paid staff and fundraising by chance for the most part. It's pretty amazing to realize how much they can do though. Phoenix in June will work for many.
