There are too many children born with hearing loss that goes left untreated on this planet. Many low-income countries do not have the resources or expertise to provide early identification and intervention services to address pediatric hearing loss. These children subsequently grow up in a noise-less world, putting them at an early disadvantage in life.
I am passionate about this problem because I have witnessed what medical professionals and technology are capable of in fixing the problem of pediatric hearing loss in more fortunate nations like the United States. We are capable of providing children and infants with hearing loss early interventions and resources like newborn hearing screening, trained audiologists and speech therapists, hearing-aid equipment, and cochlear implant technology. There is nothing quite like witnessing a child smile after being able to hear for the first time.
A person who has underwent this process first-hand is Paige Stringer, the Founder and Executive Director of the the Global Foundation For Children with Hearing Loss. Paige was born with a significant hearing loss in the United States. She was identified with her hearing loss as a baby, immediately fit with hearing aids by audiology doctors, and provided with the early intervention support from speech therapists to learn how to listen and speak. She attended mainstream schools starting at kindergarten alongside her peers of typical hearing. She attended university on a full tennis scholarship and earned two Master's degrees, including one in Public Health. She worked for several years in business with Fortune 500 companies before leaving the corporate world in 2009 to start the Global Foundation For Children With Hearing Loss. Today, Paige dedicates her life to making the essential resources available in impoverished countries and communities to address the problem of pediatric hearing loss through her foundation.
The Global Foundation For Children With Hearing Loss aims to make a direct and life-changing impact on babies and young children with hearing loss living in low and middle income countries by helping them access the early identification, hearing technology, and locally-based trained professionals they need to learn to listen and talk and reach their full potential. In Vietnam and Mongolia, they have established newborn hearing screening technology and protocol, trained teachers and audiologists to teach children with hearing loss how to listen and speak, and provided these communities with the knowledge and tools to obtain hearing aid and cochlear implant technology. The foundation is currently working to expand into other countries that have requested its support.
