For women and girls with disabilities, Sexual and Gender-Based Violence (SGBV) is a hidden danger they face every day. Studies show girls and young women with disabilities experience up to 10 times more violence than those without disabilities.
GBV can include:
* Physical harm
* Sexual abuse
* Emotional abuse
* Economic control
* Harmful practices
Through Mama Siri, women and girls with disabilities can safely report SGBV, get confidential support, and connect to medical, legal, and psychosocial services. These rights are real, these services exist, and women and girls with disabilities are already accessing them.
Caregivers and the community also play an important role by sharing information and helping break the stigma.
For support or to report SGBV, Mama Siri is available. Call 0800 000 300 or SMS 0799 000 300. The service is free and confidential.
