Samarthanam Trust for the disabled inaugurated the Resource Center for the Hearing Impaired on Monday 7th December 2020 in the presence of Shri Bhaskar Rao, IPS Additional Director General of Police Internal Security Division, Dr V.

The aim of Hearing Impaired Resource Center in Samarthanam is to enhance the education of the Hearing Deficit Children by guiding them in a way that would help them to comprehend, learn the content of school subjects and participate in the class with the mainstream students and also focus on advocacy to raise awareness about the deaf community at an individual and community level. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\"\"<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Here in Samarthanam, audiometry tests are done to the hearing impaired to understand the hearing functions and determine how well the children can hear. The Loop Induction used here in the school is an assistive listening technology in the class room which is used to tune in to the students hearing level. The Teacher is equipped with a mike and what she says will reach the child\u2019s level of hearing. The system is calibrated to suit the child\u2019s hearing level. Along with these, the Teachers use Sign languages which are used as spoken languages, and which are composed of hand movements, facial expressions and body language. <\/p>\n

Says Mahantesh G.K Founder Samarthanam Trust \u201cThe Students here are provided with resources like hearing aids, technology, and interpreting facilities through Sign Language which is a valid linguistic means of conveying thoughts, ideas, and emotions. The support from Corporates like ANZ help us in giving quality education towards empowering persons with disabilities and the underserved\u201d Speaking at the function Mr Bhaskar Rao said \u201cCourage makes anyone self-sufficient and Samarthanam <\/a> is doing great service by increasing the capabilities of its students and employees by making them strong. So build the organization from the bottom and never succumb to fear\u2019\u2019 He said.<\/p>\n

Dr.Muniraj said \u201cSamarthanam depicts hard work and the Vision, Mission and objectives are clearly visible through its growthand \u201d<\/p>\n

Mr. S.V. Venkataraman Managing Director ANZ remarked \u201cWe are indeed happy that we have been participating in the growth of Samarthanam and to see it grow gives us a lot of satisfaction and pride and we wish everyone here a successful career\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
