The purpose of this list is to provide information related to ALDA Puget Sound meetings, events and provide support where needed.

The mission of the Association of Late Deafened Adults (ALDA) is to support the empowerment of late deafened people.
ALDA Puget Sound supports deafened and hard of hearing individuals and their families through out the Greater Puget Sound area and welcomes all visitors.
Late Deafened Adults are people who have lost their hearing in any degree after having acquired spoken language. ALDA members may or may not use hearing aids, may or may not use assistive listening devices, may or may not use cochlear implants and may or may not use sign language. What ALDA members DO is 'whatever works'. This is the philosophy that keeps the doors to ALDA wide open to anyone who is interested.
ALDA supports all methods of communication and focuses on helping individual live successfully with hearing loss.
