Description of Collaborative Activity: |
The National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD) sponsors It’s a Noisy Planet Protect Their Hearing®, a national public education campaign to increase awareness among parents of children ages 8 to 12 about noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL) and how to prevent it. The campaign disseminates messages through print and digital materials, social media, community events, school presentations, and other methods. The CDC’s National Center for Environmental Health and National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) have actively collaborated with the NIDCD for this campaign. |
