'Anwesha' is a programme for young children with deafness. Early identification, intervention and appropriate guidance to parents are the key factors behind a hearing impaired child’s development of language and communication skills.

This programme is based on utilizing the residual hearing of a deaf child through use of amplification device. In this programme, a child develops listening skills, learns language and develops oral communications skills. Over the years, the child is also introduced to literacy and numeracy. The objective of this programme is to prepare a deaf child for formal education and inclusion in the mainstream society.

I care about this as I think this is an unique programme as in India due to lack of awareness and education, hearing impairment of lots of children remian unnoticed till it is too late and they are deprived of a normal upbringing.
