Promoting Early Identification and Intervention Of Disability

APDK uses a multi-disciplinary approach method in its service delivery, targeting children and persons with disability.  We depend on financial support from development partners, corporates, and well-wishers to offer its wide range of services aimed at transforming the lives of children with disabilities. We support early identification and intervention to minimize and prevent disabilities among children through promoting improved maternal health care .

APDK in collaboration with CBM and CCBRT, the Ministry of Health, conducted a joint program supported by EU.  The consortium launched 4 books for Kenya Health Workers Manuals and a guidebook on disabilities list below. Click each booklet to read more.

In the CCBR programs, APDK works closely with the existing health center, community health volunteers, the administration, stakeholders, the community, disabled persons organization and the parents of children with disabilities in raising awareness on disabilityhttps://www.apdk.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/CCBRT-English-A4-Preventing-Disabilities-Manual-Final-18-Nov5B15Dsmallpdf.com-3.pdf
