In celebration of Hispanic Heritage Month, September 15 - October 15, the NIDCD announces the launch of a new Spanish-language section of its popular website for parents of 8- to 12-year-olds, It's a Noisy Planet. Protect Their Hearing. The new section includes publications to teach parents about hearing loss from overexposure to loud noise, why children and teens are at risk, and how parents can help their children build healthy hearing habits.
