Our meetings are supported by a Hearing Loop
The Hearing Loop is the only system that sends the voice of a speaker directly into the telecoil-enabled hearing aid(s) of an audience member without background noise or the need for headsets. It provides the clearest, interference-free sound available. Come try an installed Hearing Loop which allows people with hearing loss to return to theaters, religious services and, meetings all across the US and Florida. You won’t miss a word anymore!
