NASMAA’ s mission

I have founded NASMAA to show that the deaf community should not be underestimated or dismissed because of a biological fact not of their choosing: their hearing impairment. Hard-of-hearing people can do anything a hearing person can do, just differently.

It is important to understand that being deaf does not make a person less intelligent or competent. On the contrary, the community brings unique talent and perspective to our world. I am dedicated to showcasing Lebanon and the world the abilities, strengths, and talents of the deaf community
