We are a support group for Cochlear Implant recipients, and parents, and spouses of CI recipients. Other members include speech and hearing professionals, teachers and others with an interest in CI’s. We don't favor or advocate for any particular brand of implant. We are dedicated to supporting each other while helping to improve our community. Our purpose is to provide service to the CI community in the following areas:
· Support for new and potential CI candidates.
· Assisting with special needs of recipients and potential recipients.
· Education
· Advocacy
· Other sponsorships based on community needs.
The club is based in Lincoln but members come from Lincoln, Omaha, and various other communities in Eastern Nebraska.
What is a Cochlear Implant: From the NDICC

However, dates and locations vary enough that members and visitors should check the calendar link on this site to verify details of upcoming meetings. Visitors are always welcome. To contact us regarding meeting information, call Connie Wesslund at 402-464-2894 | SERTOMA. Three very important words together in unison: SERvice TO MAnkind.
