In the peri-urban sprawl of Githurai, Kiambu County, Oliver Njenga's home is filled with the joyful laughter of his two-year-old daughter, Alma. She runs across the floor with boundless energy, a vibrant child born with Down Syndrome.

"Alma is my only daughter, and her diagnosis has shaped my life in ways I never imagined," says Njenga.
