Listen to Me! Hawaii New Family Application

We are excited to join local Hawaii professionals in launching Listen to Me! Hawaii— a comprehensive training for families receiving cochlear implants for their young children. This program will be modeled after our current California program, the Listen to Me! Conference at Stanford University.


Listen to Me! is a research-based, family centered, supportive training program that we have created and improved upon for the last 14 years. We are looking for opportunities to share this model at a larger scale, and Hawaii is our first adventure! In order to start a program that will be sustainable and repeatable annually in Hawaii, we are collaborating with many local medical professionals and educators in Hawaii to host our third LTM Hawaii Conference in 2024.


We have assembled an LTM Hawaii Leadership Team, and we are thrilled to be working closely with these three amazing specialists in Hawaii to build our program:


Jennifer Clark, MA, Early Childhood D/HH Specialist

Kimi Perez, MS, CCC-SLP, LSLS Cert AVT

Lori Wiley, AuD, PhD, CCC-A, Audiologist


The LTM Hawaii Conference will be comprised of 3 in-person days. The in-person days will be November 9—11, 2024.


The curriculum, content, and structure will predominantly be the same as the LTM California Conference, while also including customized content for families living in Hawaii.


Who is eligible?


  • Child must be between 0 and 5 years old (must turn 6 after November 15).
  • Child must have hearing loss and use hearing technology to access sound. Priority will be given to children who use cochlear implants (CIs) or are under consideration for CIs by a CI center.
  • Family must reside in Hawaii.
  • Family (including at least one parent/guardian) must commit to participating in each day of the conference (3 in person days).
