Event Description:

We created a resource pack with information that is helpful to families to get the appropriate audiology and speech services, schools for the Deaf and other support platforms, in order to assure that people know where to find the healthcare and educational platforms to promote the best hearing for themselves and their families.
We distributed these resource packs in hospitals in the Western Cape and we emailed it to various people in other Provinces in South Africa so that they can distribute it in their region. We plan to also create resource packs for countries such as Ghana, Mali, Rwanda.
