CAPTION: Betty Namale chairs the Parent’s Support Group (PSG) in the town of Lukaya. PSGs were set up by SignHealth Uganda to help raise awareness about hearing impairment, overcome the superstitions and stigmas that are attached to the condition and help parents overcome the situation of poverty that many of them have so far endured. They have helped to establish several income generating activities, including mushroom growing and soap production, both of which are sold to other community members. LOCATION: Lukaya Town, Kalungu District, Central Region, Uganda. INDIVIDUAL(S) PHOTOGRAPHED: Betty Namale.
