Deaf and Hard of Hearing Association Moves to 1,600 Sq Ft Westside Location

The Michigan Association for Deaf and Hard of Hearing (MADHH) moved from Lansing Township to Lansing’s Westside at the end of 2010, a change MADHH Executive Director Nan Asher says will give members greater access to the association.

“Size-wise, it’s the same, but the floor plan is a little better,” Asher says about the 1,600 5236 Dumond Ct. location. “We’re hoping to expand our services at this location.”

The MADHH provides multiple service to those with hearing loss including parental group education and interpretation. Asher wants to expand services to include remote video interpretation for those residing in locations such as the Upper Peninsula.

“We’ll be able to handle more functions at a centralized location,” she says. “These groups are statewide and this relates to our mission to help people.”
