Hearing loss is the invisible disability that affects more than 48 million Americans. We Hear You, an award-winning documentary produced during the pandemic by three women with hearing loss, shines a light on the hearing loss experience – its stigmas, challenges and successes. Holly has lived with hearing loss for over 35 years. It has formed her, not defined her. After the screening, she will lead a Q&A. She welcomes your stories and will share best practices to communicate more comfortably with people in your life.  To watch the trailer, visit we-hearyou.com.  This program is in collaboration with the JCC Inclusion and Diversity Department. Sponsored by The Westfield Foundation.
