When Alice Mundia cradled her newborn son for the very first time, the surge of love was beyond words. But what should have been a journey filled with the typical joys of parenthood soon became one marked by questions, delays, and an unwavering search for answers.

Her son’s development did not follow the usual path—but instead of despair, Mundia found purpose. That purpose led her into the heart of autism advocacy.

Today, Mundia is the Chairperson of the Differently Talented Society of Kenya (DTSK), an organisation devoted to supporting autistic individuals and their caregivers.
