The EAR Foundation of Arizona Information

The EAR Foundation of Arizona is proud to sponsor several programs for persons with hearing losses and for the detection of hearing loss. To-date, the majority of our funded programs have focused on children. Thanks to the generosity of Vitalyst Health Foundation, The EAR Foundation of Arizona will continue the Hear For Kids program. Additionally, through a multi-year contract with the Arizona Department of Health Services (ADHS), The EAR Foundation of Arizona will also continue to work in the area of newborn hearing screening of all infants born in Arizona. This project is implemented and in partnership with ADHS-Office of Newborn Screening. Through regular planning sessions, the Board of Directors, administrative staff and affiliated clinical staff of The EAR Foundation of Arizona identify important developments related to new technologies, demographic trends and socio-economic trends. We develop strategic plans and grant proposals for the purpose of translating trends and visions into useful and beneficial programs and services.
