Sense International Uganda is part of Sense International, a global charity that supports people with Deafblindness and their families to Live, Learn & Thrive.
Together, we reaffirmed our commitment to ensuring that every child with complex disabilities has the opportunity to reach their full potential through timely support, inclusion, and access to quality services.
#EarlyIntervention#Deafblindness#InclusiveHealth#InclusionForAll
Over the past two days, SIU convened a National Multi-Stakeholder Close-Out Meeting for the Early Intervention Project, bringing together government representatives, health professionals, caregivers, development partners, and other key stakeholders in Masaka City.
Participants shared success stories, lessons learned, and discussed practical strategies for sustaining and scaling up inclusive early intervention services beyond the project period.

โWe support children right from their homes until they are enrolled in school. I encourage parents and caregivers to come to the therapy units and look for usโwe are always available and ready to support every family that needs help.โ Noah Zepha, Occupational Therapist
โSometimes you find a child who is ten years old and still cannot feed themselves, not because they cannot learn, but because support was not sought early. Change may come slowly, but with early intervention, it comes surely.โ Joseph Kasujja, Occupational Therapist
โAs a young woman, once you discover that you are pregnant, it is very important to go to a health facility and begin antenatal care immediately. Many causes of deafblindness and other multisensory impairments can start as early as conception.โ Dr. Faith - DHO Masaka
Health experts and representatives from SIU will discuss signs, risk factors,& how early identification & intervention can change a childโs future.
