Family and Disability Program

In Uganda, countless children live with disabilities and complex medical conditions that require extensive and costly care. The goal of Okoa Refuge’s Family and Disability Program is to keep these vulnerable children safely nurtured within loving, healthy families. Partnering closely with families, Okoa provides holistic support to create an environment where children with disabilities can thrive physically, emotionally, and spiritually.

OKOA'S NEW PHYSIOTHERAPY CENTER

In honor of Dr. William N. Campbell, Okoa Refuge opened its state-of-the-art Rehabilitation Clinic and Physiotherapy Center in Masaka in 2024.
