Project to help children with both autism and hearing loss
By Ayra Wang
A groundbreaking initiative aimed at supporting children with both autism and hearing loss has been launched to address the dual challenges of "diagnostic delays" and "service mismatches" faced by these young ones.
"A SoundPath Project" - organized by the Phonak Hearing Centre Hong Kong and sponsored by Koo's Giving Charitable Foundation - will offer a comprehensive suite of services, including detailed hearing assessments, personalized hearing aids and follow-up family and educational support.
The initiative comes amid the theatrical release of The Way We Talk, which is about the Deaf community.
