Asha Nilayam, a school for Speech and Hearing Impaired Children is established in 2009 by the Benedictine Sisters of Christu Jyothi, with the vision of training the impaired children to communicate and teach them a trade they have an aptitude for. The school runs classes from 1st grade to 10th grade. It is recognized by the Government of Andhra Pradesh, India. Furthermore, Asha Nilayam aims to introduce these children into the hearing world. Our institute identifies, evaluates, and provides treatment for children with speech, language, and hearing disabilities.
Our dedicated staff scout nearby villages to identify children with speech and (or) hearing impediments.With the consent of either parents or guardians, these children are brought to Asha Nilayam where they are provided with both free food and free accommodation.
Our highly qualified staff of speech-language pathologists and audiologists set a standard of innovation and quality practice for Asha Nilayam. We teach children with mild to profound hearing loss to speak and read rather than use sign language. With the aid of advanced technology, highly trained staff, and its listening-based approach to developing communication skills in the hearing impaired.
