Despite being a public holiday on Friday, April 3rd, 2026, the Commission will remain open at its Head Office and Regional Offices to allow Kenyans who wish to present their reports and grievances.
The Commission emphasizes its commitment to inclusive participation, encouraging victims to come forward.
KNCHR Chairperson Claris Ogangah expressed the organization's dedication to justice and urged victims and survivors to report their experiences.
The Commission continues to push for the release of funds allocated by Parliament to support reparations and justice processes, highlighting the importance of government support in this critical national effort.
