About us

The Alliance was founded by a diverse team of professionals, including special education experts, occupational therapists, physiotherapist, psychologists, nutritionist, international relations specialists, as well as individuals with disabilities and parents of children with special needs.
Our founding stories
One Vision. Three Paths That Came Together.
Ability Inclusion Alliance began as one mother’s journey — a search for answers, support, and belonging. But what started as a personal mission quickly grew into a movement, thanks to the collaboration of three remarkable individuals whose lives intersected around a shared purpose.
Annab Mohamed — Founder & Chairlady
A humanitarian professional and mother of two neurodivergent children, Annab’s personal experience with caregiving and inclusion shaped the heart of the organization. Her decision to step away from a career with the UN to care for her elderly mother and later advocate for her children planted the seed that would grow into Ability Inclusion Alliance.
Dr. John Onala — Treasurer & Advisor
A seasoned educational psychologist and expert in neurodevelopment, Dr. Onala played a key role in helping Annab and her children understand their neurodivergence. His clinical insight and commitment to inclusive education laid the foundation for our technical guidance and programming.
Matilda Oira — Executive Director & Secretary
As a gifted rehabilitative services specialist, Matilda brought years of hands-on experience providing free therapy to underserved children. Her leadership and operational drive have shaped our day-to-day impact and long-term vision.
“What began as personal journeys became a shared mission — to uplift, include, and transform lives.”
Together, these three formed Ability Inclusion Alliance — a community-based organization rooted in lived experience, professional excellence, and an unshakable belief in every child’s potential.
