On Saturday, August 25, 2012, I, (Melissa Tumblin) – Founder of Ear Community and the Microtia and Atresia Support Group on Facebook, presented at the 2nd Annual Oticon Medical Patient Advocacy Conference in Somerset, New Jersey. I spoke about advocacy and how Ear Community (www.Ear Community.com) can help families and individuals with Microtia and Atresia learn more about their options, including learning more about hearing loss. I was honored to be asked to speak at the conference about Ear Community and about why I have such a passion for helping families and individuals with Microtia and Atresia around the world. I also proudly announced that Ear Community is now a 501(c)(3) non profit organization. I am looking forward to helping even more individuals across the world as much as I can as a non profit organization.
Thank you,
Melissa Tumblin – Founder of Ear Community and the Microtia and Atresia Support Group
