How hard will you fight to get up again?
Latisha Porter-Vaughn knows very well what it is to fall, as well as the fight and the trials to reach her triumph of today. Born with a hearing loss and the passing of her mother at 6 weeks old, many may have viewed it as a strike against her. Learning to live well with hearing loss was no easy feat, but she had a contender in her corner called determination.
Through the years with a well-stacked deck against her, she struggled socially academically, and professionally. Armed with her faith, self-belief, and a focused goal post, she continued to persist.
Hailing from Hamilton, Ohio, it wasn't until a 1986 infraction with the law that Latisha Porter-Vaughn began to see clearly. She picked herself up and packed a suitcase full of lessons and a mindset for change. After settling in New Jersey, Latisha's dreams began to be realized. Sounds of the Heart is the perfect blueprint to let all know - hearing loss or hearing - that you can overcome the opposition. GET YOUR FIGHT TO WIN!
