Of every 1,000 children born in the United States, between one and three will have a hearing loss, and 90% of all children with hearing loss are born to hearing parents.

And infants’ brains are brilliantly designed to master the complexities of language by sheer immersion in sound within just a few years. This is a critical time period for brain development.
