Children with disabilities often face a myriad of challenges, including stigmatization, molestation or losing their track due to a lack of intellectual coordination.
It is for this reason that well-wishers have constructed a twin dormitory for mentally challenged children at Esani Special Junior School in Gesima Ward, Kitutu Masaba Constituency, Nyamira County.
Addressing the press after commissioning the project, which has a capacity of 50 girls and boys, respectively, a member of the Board of Trustees at the National Fund for the Disabled of Kenya, Prof.
Julia Ojiambo, noted the project would finally minimize chances of child abuse which occur within the community.
