2022 Focus on
People Awards




The Oticon Focus on People Awards recognize outstanding people who are helping to show that hearing loss does not limit a person’s ability to make a positive difference in their families, communities, or the world.

 

Life-changing technology opens a world of possibilities for people with hearing loss. The Oticon Focus on People Awards honor the remarkable individuals who have turned those possibilities into realities to make the world a better place for all of us. This one-of-a-kind national awards competition has honored more than 325 outstanding people with hearing loss across the US.

Winners in each of the four categories receive prizes and national recognition that creates awareness, changes attitudes and opens doors of opportunity for all people with hearing loss.
