About CHHA

History

Picture used on the poster of the first CHHA Conference in 1983 CHHA was organized in 1982 to meet a need not addressed by any other organization. It is the only national voice of hard of hearing people in Canada. CHHA provides a vehicle for hard of hearing and deafened people to make their needs known, and to work at ensuring that those needs are identified and addressed.

A Sound Beginning was the theme of the first annual CHHA conference. It was held at the Prince Hotel in Toronto in 1983.

The picture shown above was used for this conference.
