Signed into law in 1990, the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) affords people with hearing loss<\/a> certain protections under the law. Knowing your rights can help to ensure that your hearing needs are being met in various areas of life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The ADA requires that state and local governments, businesses and nonprofits that serve the public, to communicate effectively with people who have communication disabilities such as hearing loss. This is to \u201censure that communication with people with these disabilities is equally effective<\/a> as communication with people without disabilities.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n In the past 30 years since the ADA was signed into law, the way we communicate rapidly evolved.
