USH Ambassadors for Greece

The ambassador for Greece is Lemonia.

Greece uses a team approach in order to provide local support to the USH Ambassador. Three professionals - Georgia Pappa, Katerina Bezerianou, and Froso Zafiri - have been trained and work alongside Lemonia and the DeafBlind and Usher communities in Greece.

Resources for Greece

  • The USH Trust is the largest international contact database of individuals with Usher syndrome. Created and maintained by the Usher Syndrome Coalition, it is our most powerful tool to connect and inform individuals living with Usher worldwide. The USH Trust allows us to get to know and serve the community better, and to do what we do best: identify, build, support, and connect the community, both within the Usher community and with the research community. We do this via email, telephone, videophone, social media, webinars, local social events, our USH Connections Conference, and the many resources on our website. Come, join us!
