Red Lily and FAFT joined forces again…
Red Lily was given the opportunity by FAFT to educate and empower the local participant families with current information on hearing loss and ear diseases across the life course.  
The presentation was greatly received and lots of questions were asked.  Red Lily left hearing age-appropriate assessments for the kids and encouraged them to use them as a guide and any concerns seek further medical assistance.
Red Lily also spend two days engaging with people in community to get the Hearing Awareness message out to most!  This was very well received empowering approximately 60 people with education
