    "content": "casual workers earning Kshs150 a day. They lock these children in their houses because they cannot go with them to work, and there are no schools that can accept them. Many such children in Nairobi slums are left in the houses because their parents think they are mad, yet they just have a mental challenge that most of the time can be treated. I am glad that through friends, the President and the First Lady, we donated a bus to this children home. The bus goes to some of the slums to pick and drop those children. This enables them to get a shot at life. We should be able, as a Government, to guarantee everybody a fair shot at life no matter their health status. Article 27 talks about not discriminating anyone based on their health status. I can see Members with their phones. Please, do a google search on the autistic child who performed at America has Got Talent. He could not talk, but the minute he sat on the piano, you would think that it was the top artist of the world. Some of them express themselves through colours, sounds et cetera. In Clause 5 (2D), Sen. Kasanga is providing specific responsibilities and obligations for county governments. Since health is devolved, all county governments must provide mental healthcare treatment and rehabilitation services within the county health facilities. In particular, we need to ensure that Level 2, 3 and 4 hospitals set aside dedicated specialised clinics to offer outpatient services to persons with mental illness."
