View the Hearing Loss Expo 2016 flyer

The Office for the Deaf & Hard of Hearing (ODHH) is excited to bring you Hearing Loss Expo 2016, the only one of its kind in Pennsylvania! It is not just exhibitors handing out brochures, free pens and answering your questions. No, no, no, it’s much, much more!

Where else, for free, can you:

  • Get your hearing screened,
  • Try assistive technology and see interpreters in action,
  • Learn and network,
  • Attend educational presentations, and
  • Get resources from around the state!

No other place than HLE 2016 at the Radisson Harrisburg Hotel on November 2-3, 2016.

We are working on bringing new and creative activities to HLE 2016! We will be updating this page and our Facebook page, Pennsylvania Office for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing. So stayed tuned!

Oh, and by the way, the Expo is free and open to the public.

See you at HLE 2016; it’s the place to be!

What People Are Saying about the Expo

Anne (Pennsylvania parent):
This is my first Expo and I am so glad that I attended. I got to meet so many people in one place that I never would have had the chance to meet. There were professionals from all over Pennsylvania here to provide me with information. I also got to interact with Deaf adults who were so willing to help me with my sign language skills. If you get a chance to attend an Expo you really should go!

Cathy, Hear Fayette Program:
Nothing prepared us for the great time and wonderful people that we met the past two years at the ODHH Expos! But we had so much fun, learned from the other exhibitors who promote, educate and advocate. And best of all, we met terrific people from all over: hearing people, hard of hearing, and Deaf. We thank you for the chance to be there this year, too!

Lisa Williams & Kat Lutsko, Allentown:
This expo is very informative and a must-not-miss event. If you or someone you know is new to the Deaf/Hard of Hearing world this is the event for you. There are so many helpful people, products and services there to aid you in figuring out your next steps.
