Texas Hearing Institute

Texas Hearing Institute Texas Hearing Institute is the most comprehensive resource for pediatric hearing loss in Texas.

In 1947, The Center for Hearing and Speech was founded by four parents on a bold dream that deaf children could learn to listen and speak, enabling them to communicate with their families and the community. Today, the nationally renowned Texas Hearing Institute, formerly known as The Center for Hearing and Speech, serves as the most comprehensive resource for pediatric hearing loss in Texas and the only facility in the region to offer health and spoken language education for hearing-impaired children under one roof.

A special thank you to James, one of our most eager supporters who delivered toys for Texas Hearing Institute patients for the 5th year in a row!

Each year, James rallies his community to collect toys for the children we serve, and his continued commitment has become a tradition our families look forward to. Thanks to his efforts, our Audiology waiting area is filled with gifts that will be shared with children throughout the holiday season.

We are grateful for James’ leadership, generosity, and dedication to supporting our mission year after year. His kindness brings joy to our patients and families, creating a warm, welcoming holiday experience for every child who walks through our doors.

Thank you, James, for five years of giving, and for making this season brighter for the children of Texas Hearing Institute.

Last week our students got to kick off winter break with a little Texas-style “snow day.” The morning was full of laughter and excitement as the kids played in the "snow" and enjoyed the inflatable bounce house and slide.

It’s as close to a snow day as we can get in Texas, and the perfect way to celebrate all the hard work our students have put in this semester.

Wishing all MWS students, teachers, and parents a joyful and restful winter break.
