Less-abled Addy finally feels part of his community because of sports & play!

Addy is 14 years old and has autism. Due to his disability, he was not allowed to play along with his classmatess for years. His teachers wanted to involve Addie, but they just didn't know how. Since 2019, Mutundu Primary School (Kenya) has been included in the Join for Joy Sports and Play program. Since the introduction of the program, a lot has changed for Addie. His teachers learnt during the trainings that small adjustments to playing activities allow the inclusion of every single child. Addy is now learning to look at possibilities instead of limitations. He plays along and is therefore accepted. Addy finally feels like a member of his community.
