There's a great book by a hearing impaired PCV who served in Africa - it's call "The Unheard" by Josh Swiller. I really recommend the read for any PCV.

As I recall, he was actually happier speaking in Swahili than English. He had used cochlear implants from when he was a teenager, but because he hadn't heard English from when he was a kid he was never able to speak "normally." But when he was speaking Swahili, everyone just thought he had a foreign accent and loved that he was learning the language.

Additionally, there are lots of programs that work with hearing-impaired or special needs kids.
