This past weekend, Isabel Neri laced up and ran 26.2 miles in support of Texas Hearing Institute.

Thanks to family, friends, neighbors, and teammates showing up in a big way, Isabel's marathon has already raised over 1,100 dollars toward their $2000 goal and they are still going.

Isabel’s son Giovanni was diagnosed with hearing loss as a toddler and found his path forward through THI’s audiology, speech therapy, and early education programs. Today, he is thriving and helping the family give back to the same community that supported him.

There is still time to help Isabel reach her goal.

Donate using the link below and leave “26” in the donation form comments so we can help Isabel reach the finish line!

Today, in honor of Earth Day, our kindergarten class explored how to sort recyclable materials, identify what can be reused, and think more intentionally about the items they use each day.

These activities help students develop problem-solving skills, build independence, and understand the importance of using resources wisely.

Last month, Texas Hearing Institute was proud to be represented at the EHDI Conference, where our team shared research focused on improving early hearing detection and intervention for children.

Our audiology and education teams presented on how newborn hearing screening protocols impact diagnosis outcomes, highlighting the importance of consistent screening methods and timely follow-up care.

Dr. Sarah McAlexander and Belen Ramirez presented on strategies to reduce loss to follow-up after newborn hearing screenings, highlighting the critical role of early diagnosis and timely intervention. Their session explored real-world solutions like bilingual patient support, caregiver education, and expanding access through remote ABR programs to reach families in underserved communities.

Preschool Teacher of the Deaf Bre’Anne White, presented on Strengthening the Home to School Connection Through Reflective Coaching Conversations. Her session focused on how reflective practice helps professionals build meaningful partnerships with families and respond to their diverse needs in high-quality, family-centered intervention.

Opportunities like this help us continue advancing care, improving patient outcomes, and ensuring more children have access to sound when it matters most.
