Let's talk about your child

If your child is profoundly deaf, between ages 1 and 5, and your family needs help covering the cost of hearing — we would be honored to hear from you.

Eligibility

Is my child eligible?

Every child is different — but here is who our programs are designed for.

Age 1–5

Children between their first and sixth birthdays. This age range is our core focus because the critical window for listening and spoken language is strongest now.

Profound deafness

Profoundly deaf children, with priority for those who are candidates for cochlear implantation, as determined by their medical team.

Financial need

Support is awarded based on need — for families who cannot afford the full cost of devices, surgery, therapy, or learning programs.

United States

We are a new organization; our initial service area is being confirmed as programs launch. Reach out regardless — we will do our best to help or refer.

Not sure if you qualify? Apply anyway. We would rather talk with you than have a family stay away because of a technicality. There is no cost to apply.
How to Apply

Intro conversation

We talk with you about your child's hearing, your goals, and what support you're seeking. Bring your questions.

Documentation

With your permission, we review your child's audiology records, implant-candidacy evaluation (if applicable), and basic financial information.

Decision & support

We confirm what we can fund and pay providers directly, in coordination with your child's clinical team.

What we may ask for

  • Audiogram or audiology report
  • Cochlear implant candidacy evaluation (if available)
  • Basic household income information
  • Cost estimates from your child's clinical team

We keep your family's information private. See our Privacy Policy.

FAQ

Questions families often ask

Does it cost anything to apply?

No. Applying is completely free, and there is never an obligation to accept support.

Do we need health insurance to qualify?

No. We help families with or without insurance. If you have coverage, we typically help with the out-of-pocket gap — deductibles, coinsurance, and costs your plan denies. If you're uninsured, we look at the full cost of care.

Do you decide whether my child should get an implant?

No — and we never will. Medical decisions belong to your family and your child's clinical team. If your team has determined your child is a candidate and cost is the barrier, that's where we come in.

What if my child is older than 5?

Our programs focus on ages 1–5 because that's where the evidence is strongest and our resources are aimed. If your child is older, still reach out — we may be able to point you to other organizations that can help.

How long does the process take?

As a new organization we are building our first family cohort now, so timelines are still being established. We will be upfront with you about timing from the first conversation.

Do you give money directly to families?

Our support is paid directly to clinical providers, therapists, and suppliers. This keeps costs down, protects your family from new paperwork, and ensures every dollar reaches your child's care.
