This study assessed the effectiveness of Cash Transfer program on People with Severe
Disabilities (PWSDs) in Rongai Sub County, Kenya. Three objectives viz. identification criteria of
PWSDs, effectiveness of the cash transfers program, monitoring and evaluation process were
studied. A descriptive research design with a target population of 116 was adopted. 90
respondents were selected through simple random sampling. Data was coded for descriptive
and inferential analyses using SPSS 20. Majority respondents were male (61.2%). 71.7%
attained primary education. 78.8% required permanent assistance to meet toiletry needs,
feeding and protection from harm. PWSDs identification process was conducted yearly (64.7%)
and was satisfactory (68.2%). Cash transferred was insufficient to the beneficiaries. An
institutional framework was used to implement the PWSDs program (mean 3.20). The study
established strong correlations between PWSDs identification, cash transfer process, evaluation
process (r=.804, .831 and .717) and the effectiveness of the cash transfer program. The study
recommended stakeholder analysis, training and involvement in the planning, implementation
and evaluation processes. Evaluation of the cash transfer program should be conducted at
regular and feasible intervals.
