The Help BC Hear Better Group is a team of healthcare professionals, researchers, and individuals with hearing loss, united in advocating for better access to hearing health care in British Columbia. Since forming in April 2022, the group has engaged with MLAs, government officials, and stakeholders to raise awareness about hearing health.
Who We Are
We’ve launched a petition urging the BC Legislative Assembly to invest in a provincial Hearing Health Program. You can contact your MLA by signing and sharing your story. This helps bring awareness of hearing healthcare to the Minister of Health’s attention to improve the health, safety, and well-being of all British Columbians.
Take Action Now
Hearing loss affects a large and growing number of British Columbians. It can delay speech and social development in children as well as increased risk of falls and social isolation in seniors. A major barrier to treatment is the high cost of hearing aids, which are not consistently funded in BC, unlike in other provinces.
