1 in 10 People in Your Congregation May Have a Hearing Difficulty

Research shows that as many as 1 out of 10 people in churches today have some sort of difficulty hearing. That means that they probably are missing some or most of what is being communicated during service times. So it is important for us to use our technology to make our music and message as accessible to as many as want to experience it. That means improving our sound systems to be as clear as possible and adding some supplemental hearing assistance systems for those who still have trouble hearing.

Federal Mandate

The Federal Government has mandated that newly constructed or remodeled public buildings comply to the standards of the Americans With Disabilities Act. Depending on how each State has set up its regulations, churches may need to provide hearing assistance systems for people equalling up to 4% of seating capacity. But the issue should not about being forced to comply. Our heart, as churches, should be to pro-actively seek to help all of our members to be able to participate fully. This could also mean helping those who speak a foreign language to be able to hear the message so they can understand.
CCI Solutions has been expertly coaching churches on how to put together hearing assistance and language translation systems for decades, and we provide the best systems and components available. We will guide you step by step on how to make a hearing assistance system work with your sound system, and provide the right accessories for your congregation.

The  Solution

Our go-to system is the Williams Sound PPA-375 wireless listening system. It allows those who need hearing help to listen with personal and discrete receivers that give them freedom to worship and enter in wherever they are in the auditorium.
