We know every child can reach their full potential.

We work with families and other medical professionals to achieve the best outcomes for deaf children through a combination of early diagnosis, the most advanced hearing technology and auditory-verbal therapy, where we teach children to listen and speak.

Our team work with children of all ages – from Early Intervention after newborn hearing screening, through to our school screening program Hear to Learn, and beyond. Our therapy model works with the needs of the whole child, including occupational therapy.

Thousands of children, young adults and families benefit from our programs and services each year, achieving great outcomes (100% of children in our Early Intervention Program moved into mainstream schools in 2017).

It takes up to six years to teach one profoundly deaf child to learn to listen and speak. This means we must rely on a mix of funding, including fundraising events and activities, and the generous support of our donors and partners so all young children have the opportunity to Hear, Say and Live.

The strength of Hear and Say lies in our community, and we would love for you to get involved in our work, and share in the wonderful stories of our children.

Hear and Say is a charity based in Queensland with centres in Brisbane, Gold Coast, Sunshine Coast, Rockhampton, Townsville, and a Telepractice program for rural and remote children.
