Hearing Impairment

The sense of hearing plays a critical role in the development of speech and language and in monitoring one’s speech. For children with hearing disabilities, whether congenital or acquired, the development of regular speech is hampered.

As per the Census 2011 data, in India, approximately 1.26 million people suffer hearing impairment. Despite specially developed languages like ISL and ASL, people with hearing disabilities are still denied mainstream education.

As a small step towards this, ChandraMohan Foundation donated Seimen’s Hearing Aids to these children through the Inner Wheel – Rotary Foundation.
