ACK Archbispob Jackson Ole Sapit. [ David Njanga, Standard]

The Anglican Church of Kenya Archbishop Jackson Ole Sapit has raised concerns over "many" disabled children and adults whom he said are still hidden away in homes and denied opportunities to fully participate in the growth of the society.

Speaking during the launch of the Disability, the Bible and the Church Conference in Nairobi, Ole Sapit challenged the church to open its doors wider to people living with disabilities.

He said churches must move beyond sympathy and deliberately create inclusive spaces that embrace and empower people with disabilities.
