Question
Can hearing impaired children apply for a reduction every year to the Disabled Union?
Answer
Hearing impaired children can apply to the Disabled Union annually. Firstly, they should obtain a diagnosis certificate from the diagnosing party and then apply for assistance at the Disabled Union. Remember that disabled, orphaned, and intellectually disabled children can apply for national assistance. Hearing impairment refers to varying degrees of hearing loss in both ears due to various reasons, which prevents them from hearing or understanding sounds from the surrounding environment and speech, thereby affecting their daily lives and social participation. It is categorized based on the average hearing loss and factors such as the structure, function, activity, and participation of the auditory system, as well as environmental and support factors.
