A MESSAGE FROM OUR PRESIDENT/CEO

When you think of Central Florida Speech & Hearing Center, most people think of children learning to speak clearly or someone with a hearing loss, whether young or old, being able to hear again. That may be the result of our testing and therapies, but the most important outcome for all who receive help is CONNECTION.

“Connection is why we’re here; it is what gives purpose and meaning to our lives” - Brene Brown

Effective communication is always our ultimate goal. It is how we connect to the world around us. For adults it keeps our bodies strong and dementia at bay. For children, it is learning language, then to learn to become being within society, learn to read and then to write - all skills that contribute to success and happiness.

 

Sincerely, 

Roxann K. Bonta

President/CEO
