Nearly 45 million adults in the United States suffer from hearing loss, but only approximately 25% have ever used a hearing aid–and hearing loss is only on the rise. The World Health Organization released a new standard for safe listening at venues and events in 2022, noting that millions of young adults may be at risk of hearing loss due to the “unsafe use of personal audio devices and exposure to damaging sound levels at venues such as nightclubs, bars, concerts and sporting events.” The result is a heightened sense of urgency to promote hearing wellness and find innovative ways to assist those with hearing loss.
