Empowering People Who Stutter

Hear Me operates as a dedicated non-profit community initiative. The group actively empowers people who stutter across the Sultanate.

Members work hard to spread vital stuttering awareness within society. Stuttering affects roughly one percent of the entire global population.

This speech condition impacts nearly 80 million people worldwide today.

Rapid Growth and Expert Training

Organizers started this unique initiative with just three members initially. They launched the first Omani program of its kind during early 2020.

Today, the thriving community includes over 200 diverse male and female members. Program trainers traveled abroad to complete advanced speech control courses.

They successfully earned official Training of Trainers certificates. These experts now provide highly specialized, quality programs locally.

The initiative boasts an impressive history of winning major awards. The National Human Rights Committee formally recognized their amazing work in 2022.

The team proudly represented Oman at the 2024 Beirut Volunteer Award. Judges named them among the top ten Arab world initiatives then.
