The Southern Alberta Council on Public Affairs (SACPA) presents a session discussing hearing loss and the importance of strategies to maintain proper hearing.

• A clear breakdown of the links between hearing loss and cognitive decline.
• How your brain health could be affected by untreated hearing loss.
• Strategies to protect your hearing and minimize risks.
• How to identify misleading marketing and scare tactics being used in the hearing health industry.
