The Baker Institute is committed to expanding access to high-quality hearing healthcare and Listening and Spoken Language (LSL) services for children and families around the world. We partner with local providers and global organizations to strengthen clinical capacity, increase access to resources, and support sustainable, family-centered care.

Our work currently includes two key international initiatives:

Kenya – Hear Kenya Initiative

Our most in-depth international program, the Hear Kenya Initiative provides comprehensive support through in-person engagement, virtual training and mentoring, and ongoing program development. This work focuses on building local capacity, expanding access to services, and supporting families of children with hearing loss.
