The Ministry of Health and Human Services, in collaboration with Latter-Day Saint Charities, officially launched the Wheelchair Assessment and Assembly Training this week — a powerful step toward ensuring mobility, dignity, and inclusion for all.
Led by Dr. Ting-Ju Kuo and Mr. Hiroto Ishikawa, the training equips health and rehabilitation personnel with the skills to properly assess, assemble, and fit wheelchairs for children and adults in need across the Marshall Islands.
This initiative would not have been possible without the partnership and support of the Marshall Islands Persons with Disability Organization, our local governments, and our dedicated team who helped bring this project to life.
Every wheelchair represents more than mobility — it represents freedom, independence, and hope for our people.
Together, we live by our guiding principle:
“Kumiti Ejmour” — Health is a Shared Responsibility.
