Fana-Ethiopia is dedicated to providing early identification, assessment, and intervention for children with learning, communication, intellectual, and developmental disabilities from KG to age eight. Our comprehensive services include occupational, physiotherapy, and speech therapy, along with parental counseling and awareness training for educators and healthcare providers to ensure every child has the support they need to thrive.

For children diagnosed with a disability, getting the support they need as early as possible will give them the best chance of minimizing the long-term effects of the disability.

It shouldn’t matter how slowly a child with a disability learns. What matters is that we encourage them to never stop?”
