She made the promise when she visited the Osu Children Home to donate some drinks, milk, biscuits, clothes, other food items and an undisclosed amount of money.
Akwaaba Zorg Inc. offers specialized care, coordination of care including intensive ambulatory support and specialized pedagogical support to those in need, children with special needs and their parents as well as the vulnerable in the Dutch society.
She wants to collaborate with her specialized team of Social Workers
in Holland to provide training to caregivers and managers of the children home to build their capacity on handling children with special needs.
Doris hinted that children with special needs require special attention in order to integrate them into the vas society to prevent discrimination.
According to her, it is appropriate for Care Givers to be well trained in the handling of such children.
She will also consider other support for the children at the Home.
