Pamoja na Dyslexia
About the Programme
No Family Should Navigate Dyslexia Alone
Pamoja na Dyslexia was born from a simple but powerful truth: the journey is easier when you don’t walk it alone. The programme creates structured community spaces where families and educators can share, learn, and support one another.
Through peer support groups, community awareness events, and school partnerships, Pamoja builds the village around every child with dyslexia — reducing isolation, stigma, and the feeling that something is “wrong” with their child or student.
The programme reaches urban and rural communities alike, with sessions delivered in English and Swahili to maximise accessibility across Kenya.
