Chairperson Fua Hazelman, Secretary Vineta Nickel and Treasurer Aiufi Kelekolio have been voted back to their positions.
SENESE also welcomed new members to the board; Eli Kapu, a parent, who has been elected to the Vice Chairperson position, and new board members Cecelia Keil, Maryanne Lameko-Va’ai and Jason Annandale.
SENESE Director Marie Bentin- Toalepaialii, Staff Association President To’oala Faleupolu and a representative of the disability community Faaolo Utumapu- Utailesolo are also part of the 10-member board.
The newly elected board comes with a wealth of experience in a range of areas such as accounting, law; community development and management that will benefit SENESE as they continue to provide inclusive support services to children with disabilities.
SENESE Inclusive Support Services is the only provider of inclusive education services in Samoa, assisting children with disabilities by advocating for a barrier-free environment for children with disabilities in schools and communities.
SENESE provides support through resources, teachers’ aid, adaptive devices, and other support, to enable a child with a disability to participate in school and on the same footing with his/her peers.
The support is made possible with the assistance of the Australian Government Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade.
