From Right to left: Executive Director Donna Sorkin, Congressman McKinley, and Co-Founding Chair of ACI Alliance Dr. John Niparko July 2015
ACI Alliance is grateful to retiring Congressman David McKinley for his long-term support of cochlear implants and hearing health. His openness about his personal experience with hearing loss and having a cochlear implant helped show the nation what hearing technology can do to help someone pursue anything in life. He once said he would not have been able to serve in Congress without his cochlear implant. We thank him for all of his work and wish him the best on his new endeavors!
The mission of the American Cochlear Implant (ACI) Alliance is to advance access to the gift of hearing provided by cochlear implantation through research, advocacy and awareness.
