Incorrect beliefs about the causes of and treatments for disability are often a larger obstacle for children with disabilities than physical barriers. Kuhenza removes stigmas related to disability by educating leaders and communities through training workshops, large-scale public events, family counselling sessions, and our community resource center.

Consistent access to high-quality education gives children with disabilities life and career choices that otherwise would not be available to them. Kuhenza supports this goal by providing special education teachers, school supplies, teacher trainings, construction of school facilities, and boarding school fees.

Many parents and caregivers of children with disabilities are unable to afford the medical care these children need. In response, Kuhenza provides funding, referrals and transportation to help children access medical services such as physical therapy, doctor visits, surgeries, medication, nutritional support, and equipment like wheel chairs and hearing aids.
