Our Programs
Building skills, access, rights, and opportunity.
What We Do
Education
We believe education is the greatest equalizer for persons with disabilities. We focus on strengthening language and communication for deaf children and their families, promoting early diagnosis, and advocating for quality inclusive learning. We also offer scholarships and support systems change in the education sector.
Livelihoods & Climate Justice
We equip young people with disabilities with vocational, social, and entrepreneurial skills, including income-generating activities and sustainable agriculture. We partner with employers and communities to open inclusive economic opportunities, and advocate for disability-inclusive climate projects where youth with disabilities shape planning, policy, and budgeting.
Kenyan Sign Language
Kenyan Sign Language is central to our identity and inclusion efforts. We provide KSL training to service providers and the public and advocate for its official recognition and widespread use, helping to dismantle communication barriers for the deaf community.
Health
Health is a fundamental right. We work to ensure children and young people with disabilities have access to quality healthcare, including sexual and reproductive health services, on an equal basis with others. We also raise awareness of these rights within communities.
