In October 2024, we organized another online session for 24 children with hearing disabilities.
Among them was an 8 year old 2nd grader, Kristina, from the Ukrainian city of Pereyaslav-Khmelnitsky. She was born with hearing problems and has additional speech problems. At the age of 4, she received a cochlear implant. COVID pandemic and then the war that followed made it impossible for her family to enroll Kristina into a rehabilitation program.
Our experienced specialists, who extend their support to children and their parents across Ukraine, came to Kristina’s aid. Our rehabilitation program’s online curriculum gives children like Kristina an opportunity to achieve positive outcomes through rehabilitation.
In this online session, we also held additional classes for parents, who received practical advice on how to continue to study with their children at home, as well as offered advise on raising and integrating children with hearing problems into the social environment.
Once again, we express our deep gratitude to our generous sponsors for supporting our project, which helps Ukrainian children in war conditions to get the opportunity to undergo hearing and speech rehabilitation.
