In Langas, stigma and silence keep people living with disabilities on the margins. Caregivers feel helpless, and children grow up excluded from school and community life.
A whole-community approach trains caregivers, teachers and community leaders who learn practical ways to include, support and empower people living with disabilities.
Together, we can support dignity and inclusion.
Children and people living with disabilities in Langas face stigma, exclusion, and limited access to education, health care, and livelihoods. Caregivers often feel isolated and unsupported.
The Breaking Disability Barriers Project, led by the Edmund Rice Eldoret Empowerment Program (EREEP), is the first initiative of its kind in Kenya’s North Rift region. It takes a whole-community approach to create lasting inclusion.
The project:
With your support, children and people living with disabilities in Langas can live with dignity and equality, supported by informed caregivers and inclusive communities.
