    Our Mission

    We will establish speech therapy university course and jobs for Cambodians, raise awareness, and influence government policy.

    Exit Strategy

    100 Cambodian University qualified speech therapists are integrated into Cambodia’s public sector by 2030.

    Message From Director

    We’re a small team based in Phnom Penh, Cambodia. Our vision is to make speech therapy available to all who need it in Cambodia. We are establishing both formal and informal partnerships with various NGOs…
