This is not reflected in any policy or document in Kenya. However, under the National Policy on Older Persons and Ageing policy statement, the government intends to collaborate with relevant stakeholders to “promote and protect the family as a fundamental unit of the society, to provide care, and assistance to older Persons (Ministry of Labour, 2014), page 10.” There are currently no ongoing programmes in Kenya protecting the family as a unit.
