CI Support Group Meeting at TU Chapman Center AND on Microsoft Teams, Thursday 10/30/2025 at 6:45 pm CT

"We rescheduled to the 5th Thursday this month due to TU's Homecoming.

"Next week, we will welcome back Natalie David (Listening and Spoken Language Specialist) to lead discussion on how to best exercise one's listening brain. Listening practice is critical for successful use of a cochlear implant whether you're one month, one year, or one decade into your journey. We will meet in person at the Chapman Center as well as online. Contact Julie Hyland below for the Microsoft Teams virtual meeting link.

"Hope to see you then!"
