What HearFinder provides
A shared local data model, public discovery page, evidence review, correction workflow, coverage reporting, and reusable outreach materials.
For communities, associations, and government
Create a trusted local hearing-access page people can act on.
HearFinder helps a city, state, advocacy group, school network, or association organize verified venues into one maintainable public view.
What the community contributes
A named local owner, a defined venue cohort, trusted outreach, evidence gathering, and ongoing corrections.
Why participate
Make local progress visible without hiding the gaps.
A useful public page
Residents get one place to discover verified venues and practical access instructions.
A manageable pilot
Start with one city, district, venue type, or member cohort instead of an unbounded directory project.
Transparent coverage
Track verified records, missing information, corrections, and areas that still need outreach.
Activation evidence
A community activates by owning a verified local cohort.
Activation requires a named owner, a defined venue cohort, and at least one completed review cycle resulting in accepted listings or corrections. An endorsement or shared link alone is not activation.
How it works
Launch a local page with accountable ownership.
