<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">Hello everyone, I am pleased to let you know that the National Federation of the Blind DeafBlind Division’s Guide for Hearing Aid Wearers is now available.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">We hope to have this available on the website in the near future, and we will be discussing it on the Federation’s Access On podcast. In the meantime, I am going to attempt to attach an accessible PDF version of the document
to this message.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">You can read this yourself if you would like information about the complex world of hearing technology and how it integrates with other technology we use as DeafBlind people, and you can also provide it to audiologists
so they better understand our needs.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">Thanks,<o:p></o:p></span></p>
