Warm welcome to the new group of children

This post is also available in: Dutch German Swahili

In January, we started a new 7-week program. The young children up to 4 years old come to the center with their mothers for:

  • Intensive guidance: Children up to 4 years old, together with their mothers, receive professional support from therapists and care mothers from Sibusiso.
  • Holistic approach: Attention is paid to movement, good nutrition, learning to talk and walk, which contributes to the broad development of the child.
  • Mutual support: Mothers stay together in the center, allowing them to help each other and share experiences.
  • Focus on inclusivity and resilience: The program promotes a better future in their own community and strengthens the social skills of both mother and child.

Investing in our organization

Sometimes it is necessary to evaluate our own organization as well. For instance, the organization of automation and IT requires attention. For this reason, Gabry Vlot visited Arusha to advise us in this area.

A mobile clinic truck for Sibusiso

Many children with disabilities do not receive the care they need because the center is too far away, there is no transport, or there are no funds. That is why Sibusiso visits villages with a mobile clinic. Join the fundraising campaign for a mobile clinic truck for Sibusiso. By doing so, you help set this essential care in motion!

Sharing knowledge about treatment methods

Rehabilitation physician in training, Elian König, spent two months working alongside the therapists in Arusha. She is researching how the quality of care at the center can be further improved.

The programs

Would you like to know more about the programs we organize for the development of children with disabilities?

Child comes to the center once a month. Tailored therapy: physiotherapy, nutrition. Personal plan. Then continue at home via outreach.
Four weeks full of development. Young children learn to eat, move and communicate. Mothers learn too. This is followed by home guidance via outreach.
Children and young adults with disabilities learn practical, social, and academic skills within 6 months for an independent future.
The Outreach Team provides home therapy, advice, assistive devices, and breaks down taboos, ensuring children with disabilities receive more opportunities and acceptance.
In the center, carpenters and physiotherapists custom-make assistive devices such as wheelchairs and chairs, improving children’s therapy and mobility.
Sibusiso shares knowledge through theme days, sports, play and celebrations. Families, care providers and governments learn and celebrate together with the children.
Sibusiso shares 25 years of knowledge through a new knowledge center with training and education to increase understanding and acceptance of children with disabilities.
