Both teams emphasized the importance of partnerships, evidence-based interventions, and coordinated support systems in improving the lives of children and individuals with special needs across the country.

DID YOU KNOW? 📚

Dyslexia is a specific learning disability that affects reading, spelling, and writing but it does not mean a person lacks intelligence. Many learners with dyslexia are highly creative, talented, and capable when given the right support.
🔍 Dyslexia can be:
✔️ Genetic
✔️ Developmental
✔️ Acquired through brain injury
✔️ Linked to emotional or psychological stress
🧠 With proper intervention such as structured literacy, assistive technology, extra learning time, and continuous support, learners with dyslexia can thrive both in school and beyond.
At the Kenya Institute of Special Education (KISE), we train teachers and education professionals on how to effectively support learners with dyslexia and other learning difficulties in inclusive classroom settings.

🎓 Diploma in special needs applications are ongoing! Visit our website for more information and applications: www.kise.ac.ke

Together, we can create classrooms where every learner feels understood, supported, and empowered to succeed. 🌍✨

📍 Samburu, tunakuja!

The Kenya Institute of Special Education (KISE) is bringing the Mashinani Functional Assessment Outreach Program closer to the people of Samburu County from 25th – 30th May 2026.

This outreach aims to identify, assess, and support children with physical, learning, and sensory challenges through professional intervention and guidance.

We invite parents, guardians, teachers, and community members to bring children who may need support services to the nearest outreach venue. Together, we can ensure that no child is left behind.

In partnership with the Ministry of Education, UNICEF, Hapag-Lloyd, Braille Bricks, and Pamoja Tusome.

During the Disability, the Bible and the Church Conference 2026 organised by Hope Mobility Kenya , held at CITAM Valley Road, Mr. Anthony Mwangi, Deputy Director of Finance and Administration at Kenya Institute of Special Education (KISE), spoke on overcoming disability stigma and commended the church for creating space for such important conversations.

He encouraged parents to instill values of respect and inclusion in their children and urged the church and wider community to involve persons with disabilities in leadership roles, social gatherings, weddings, parties, and other community activities.

Mr. Mwangi further encouraged parents to bring their children to KISE for early assessment and guidance, noting that delayed assessment may limit opportunities for support. He also encouraged registration with the National Council for Persons with Disabilities to access available services and support.

Did you know?
Disabilities don't only happen at birth,anyone can acquire a disability at any point in life. Through what we call postnatal causes, an individual can acquire a disability even at the age of 50 and older due to unexpected life changes, illnesses, or accidents.

Rehabilitation is the vital bridge that helps an individual adapt, restore independence, and live almost a normal life through targeted interventions.

At the Kenya Institute of Special Education (KISE), we offer comprehensive Rehabilitation Services to support this journey
