\u201cThe global pandemic has disrupted so many lives over this past year. We know that for Canadians who are Deaf or hard of hearing, vital information has been missed. The results of the survey will allow us to better understand how communications can be up-to-date and accessible, especially during critical times,\u201d said Lee Pigeau CHHA National Executive Director.<\/p>\n

\u201cRecent data has shown the profound impact that the COVID-19 pandemic has had on people with disabilities around the globe.\u00a0 This national survey will enable us to better understand the unique experiences of Canadians who are Deaf and hard of hearing and how COVID-19 has impacted our communities in the areas of communication accessibility,\u201d says Christopher T. Sutton, CEO of Wavefront Centre for Communication Accessibility. \u201cThe results will enable us to make systematic changes to better serve the needs of our communities throughout the recovery stage of this pandemic and in the future.\u201d<\/p>\n

Who should complete the online survey: Adults who are Deaf or Hard of Hearing.<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n

Purpose of the survey: To collect information on the impact the pandemic has had on the daily lives of people who experience hearing loss and deafness. This information will help us better understand how the pandemic has been experienced and also how information about the virus and disease can best be delivered to the public.<\/p>\n

This national survey is part of a larger partnership between the Canadian Hard of Hearing Association and Wavefront Centre for Communication Accessibility. This work will assist our organizations in better understanding the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our communities and the barriers experienced by people who are Deaf and hard of hearing.<\/p>\n

A webinar to provide an overview of the survey results is scheduled in May 2021.<\/strong><\/p>\n
