Founded in 1927, Hearing Bridges, (formerly League for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing / EAR Foundation) is the oldest and only community-based agency in Tennessee dedicated to providing a range of services for deaf, deaf-blind, and hard of hearing people in Middle Tennessee. Its mission is to unite the deaf, hard of hearing, and hearing communities through education, services, and support, empowering individuals to achieve their full potential. This grant will fund a portion of the Director of Living Well’s salary, Interpreter and transcription fees, Wellness class instructors, and Professional lecturers for quarterly workshops. At least 54 of 60 participants (90%) who receive health risk assessments will take at least one proactive measure to eliminate or reduce health risks within six months.  At least 30 of 35 participants (85%) who attend weekly intervention classes will establish three to five wellness goals and will achieve positive progress in at least 50% of the goals by the end of the class series in order to improve their overall health.
