Happy Women's History Month
WHAT WE DO
RESCUE. RESTORE. EDUCATE
We work in Kenya to provide women and girls with the tools for physical, mental, and economic healing and freedom through safe housing, education, healthcare, counseling, and economic empowerment.
Our advocacy is done within the existing infrastructure to empower the community to break the myths surrounding violence against women and girls and to advocate for change in structures, protocols, and policies that are detrimental to women and girls and impede their access to rights.
OUR HISTORY
Wounded Healers was founded in Kenya with a story of agony and a big scare of a young Kenyan woman, a victim of sexual violence. With unwavering determination and support from well-wishers, she emerged as a survivor and pursued her career in Counseling Psychology.
Inspired by how much hope redeemed her circumstances, Nuna made it her life mission to change the outcome for other survivors who do not have support.
She equips girls to pursue their educational dreams, make a transformative impact, have hope for the future, and empower the community to strengthen favorable social norms, attitudes, and behaviors to prevent violence and uptake essential justice measures for survivors.
