Always passionate about Italian Sign Language (LIS), she is currently the president of the Gruppo SILIS cooperative, founded in 1989 with the goals of spreading the use of LIS through teaching, training interpreters, training communication assistants for deaf students in schools, and giving support to bilingual projects in schools.
