Advocating for the
rights of women and girls with disabilities

This Ability Trust is a women-led nonprofit organization whose mission is to advance the sexual reproductive health and rights of women and girls with disabilities in Kenya and across the region. We envision a society in which women and girls with disabilities have access to quality dignified healthcare with their rights respected and upheld. Our model focuses on leveraging various forms of technology to increase access to sexual reproductive healthcare services and information, build the capacities of healthcare providers on disability rights and inclusive healthcare and collect disaggregated data to inform and strengthen collective multi stakeholder advocacy on sexual reproductive health for women and girls with disabilities in Kenya.

“We believe in a world where the sexual and reproductive health rights of women and girls with disabilities are upheld and respected at all times”

Who We work with

We collaborate with diverse stakeholders.
Together, we champion inclusive health, economic empowerment, and rights-based advocacy to create a more equitable society.

Women and Girls with Disabilities

We center the lived experiences of women and girls with disabilities, ensuring they have access to quality Sexual Reproductive Health and Rights services and information. We build the leadership capacities of Mama Siri and Digital Dadas and partner with communities of women and girls with Disabilities to amplify their voices and experiences, increase their participation and strengthen their access to sexual reproductive health and rights.

HealthCare Providers and HealthCare Facilities

In line with our commitment to increasing access to quality sexual reproductive healthcare, we work to build knowledge and skills on disability-inclusive sexual reproductive health and rights among healthcare providers. We partner with healthcare facilities to promote equity and dignity for women and girls with disabilities in healthcare. Through targeted sensitization and capacity-building efforts, we aim to ensure that healthcare providers understand and uphold the rights of women and girls with disabilities in all aspects of healthcare delivery.

Civil Society Organizations (CSOs)

We partner with various civil society organizations working on human rights and the sexual and reproductive health rights to increase knowledge and visibility on the experiences of women and girls with disabilities. Together, we co-create strategies that advocate for inclusive policies and drive policy change towards increasing access to quality sexual and reproductive rights for women and girls with disabilities. Through collaborative efforts with partners, our joint advocacy helps influence policy and budgetary changes at the county, national and global level.

Our Story

In 2013, we began wheelchair rugby workshops that used adaptive sports as a platform to provide access to Sexual and Reproductive Health services to women with disabilities in Nairobi. Through partnerships with Family Health Options, over 200 women with disabilities received reproductive health services such as Breast and Cervical Cancer screening, Contraception and Family Planning, STIs and HIV prevention and counselling services and information.

Vision Statement

At This Ability Trust, we envision a world where every woman and girl with a disability lives with dignity, autonomy, and equal access to their sexual and reproductive health and rights.

Rooted in equity, inclusion, and justice, our work is grounded in the belief that true transformation happens when women and girls with disabilities are not just beneficiaries—but leaders, co-creators, and change-makers.

We are committed to building inclusive systems that honor diverse experiences, remove barriers, and center survivor-led, trauma-informed care, ensuring safety, voice, and choice for all.

Through intersectional feminist advocacy, community engagement, and bold partnerships, we strive for a future where no woman or girl is left behind, and where the full spectrum of SRHR is accessible, affirming, and empowering.

Our Core Values

Equity and Justice

We strive to dismantle systemic barriers and power imbalances by ensuring equitable access to sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR) for women and girls with disabilities, recognizing that fairness—not sameness—is key to justice.

Inclusion and Accessibility

Dignity and Respect

We honor the intrinsic worth of every woman and girl with a disability, treating them with compassion, sensitivity, and respect in all our actions and engagements.

Empowerment and Self-Determination

We champion the leadership, autonomy, and voice of women and girls with disabilities, supporting their right to make informed decisions about their bodies, health, and futures.

Intersectional Feminism

We work through a feminist lens that recognizes the complex, overlapping identities of women and girls with disabilities—including gender, age, sexuality, and economic status—and how these shape experiences of discrimination.

Participation and Co-Leadership

We ensure women and girls with disabilities lead and shape the programs and policies that affect them, from design to evaluation, fostering true co-creation and ownership.

Accountability and Transparency

We are accountable to the communities we serve, practicing transparency in our processes, partnerships, and reporting, and upholding the highest ethical standards.

Survivor-Centered Support

We deliver trauma-informed, confidential, and accessible care to survivors of sexual and gender-based violence, prioritizing safety, healing, and justice for women and girls with disabilities.

Collaboration and Solidarity

We build strong alliances with feminist, disability rights, healthcare, and policy actors to advocate for inclusive SRHR systems and amplify the voices of marginalized women and girls.

Learning, Innovation, and Evidence-Based Practice

We value continuous learning from the lived experiences of women and girls with disabilities, adapting our strategies to ensure relevance, impact, and sustainability.
