Fairview Audiology and Aural Rehabilitation Clinic is part of the Lions 5M International Hearing Center. The Lions Club District 5M generously provided funding to establish the International Hearing Center at the University of Minnesota and continues to support initiatives at the center.

In 2005, the Lions Children's Hearing Center opened, bringing together otolaryngology, audiology, pediatric infectious disease, genetics, speech-language pathology, aural rehab and behavioral psychology specialties in one location.

Fairview Audiology and Aural Rehabilitation Clinic provides a vital link in the Hearing Center’s mission to provide service, education and research in the area of hearing disorders.
