OrthoFaso

Activities and Objectives of the Association

Orthofaso is a nonprofit organization established under the French Law of 1901, founded in 2006, whose mission is to promote and manage speech-language therapy projects. The team, composed of 14 speech-language pathology students, previously worked with children and adolescents with multiple disabilities living in an orphanage in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam.

As the health crisis has prompted us to reinvent ourselves, we are now pursuing two new projects that are better suited to the current context:

• an international project, providing remote support to various organizations working in Vietnam as well as the orphanage through donations and the shipment of supplies;
• a local project that promotes the development of oral language through preventive measures targeting at-risk populations—in collaboration with the APOH.
