There after Narada was admitted to the national stream of the education in the country and today after 18 years He in Canada furthering his studies Narada’s Grand mothers commitment did not end there but she return to Sri Lanka and started treating hearing impaired kids with her experience & knowledge unfortunately they lack the resources of a fully equipped Audiology center in order to help the hundreds of kid who need this todayOur only aim is to train children through Auditory Verbal Therapy by having an Audiology Center for them with all facilities so that we can rehabilitate our Deaf & Hard of Hearing kids who are studying not only in our Early Intervention Pre School but to any in the country
