Does MNCDHH help with hearing dogs?

Where MNCDHH comes in: MNCDHH's role is to promote communication access and equal opportunity through legislative activity and by building community partnerships.

Here's an example. We might advocate, along with community experts, for legislation that improves access for individuals and organizations who work with service animals. However, we are not involved in the process of training and matching service animals. That is done by the community experts and organizations.

Where DHHSD comes in: Anytime you are searching for information about services and referrals related to hearing loss resources, we suggest that you contact the Minnesota Department of Human Services Deaf and Hard of Hearing Services Division (DHHSD). You can contact your local regional office or you can download DHHSD's Professional and Consumer Resource Guide. Good luck!
