Action Network for the Disabled (ANDY) is dedicated to achieving equality, inclusion and empowerment of young people with disabilities in Kenya and seeks to mainstream them into all aspects of daily life. ANDY’s work focuses mainly at the grassroots level, where they operate to reach and raise the voices of children and young people with disabilities at a national and international level.

ANDY, who were one of the founding members of the Able Child Africa Network, advocate for equal opportunities through promoting proactive social and economic participation and involving young people with disabilities in development and decision-making processes. Key areas of focus include education, employment, health, sport and fitness, HIV/AIDS awareness, economic empowerment and the right to vote/participate in Government.

Working towards a common vision with the Able Child Africa Network has seen us reach greater heights and enabled us to impact more children.
