In 2013, Leia Isanhart met a little boy in
Nairobi with intellectual disabilities. Because
he was not very mobile, his mother had to
carry him around. Two years later, the senior
technical advisor of Health for Catholic Relief
Services said the young boy is jumping,
clapping his hands, and singing. The mother is
“full of joy” thanks to CRS. CRS partnered with
Special Olympics and Adventist Center for
Care and Support in 2013, developing a pilot
program to care for children with disabilities
and provide positive parenting training to
families.
