In humanitarian emergencies, children with disabilities are among those most at risk. Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, UNICEF and Special Olympics have worked to protect the rights of children with disabilities and meet their needs — and their families'.
UNICEF supported and shared Special Olympics Jamaica's inclusive tips to help children and young people with disabilities stay healthy during the pandemic. Easy to download and share, they cover everything from the importance of eating healthfully and regular check-ups to measures all kids can take to stop the spread of COVID-19.

HOW TO HELP
There are many ways to make a difference
War, famine, poverty, natural disasters — threats to the world's children keep coming. But UNICEF won't stop working to keep children healthy and safe.
UNICEF works in over 190 countries and territories — more places than any other children's organization. UNICEF has the world's largest humanitarian warehouse and, when disaster strikes, can get supplies almost anywhere within 72 hours. Constantly innovating, always advocating for a better world for children, UNICEF works to ensure that every child can grow up healthy, educated, protected and respected.
