Different, not less.
We advocate for stronger recognition and support of ABA within Kenya’s healthcare system and insurance industry — and for a society that welcomes neurodivergent children.
Where the system falls short
Three barriers we’re working to remove.
Too few behaviour analysts
With few formal ABA education programmes in Kenya, there aren’t enough qualified professionals to meet demand.
Limited understanding
Some health practitioners and insurance companies don’t fully understand ABA, making recommendations and support harder to obtain.
Stigma
Social stigma around autism and other neurodivergent conditions can create barriers to acceptance and support.
Be a voice for change
End the stigma around autism. Stand with neurodivergent children.
