Dear Partners,
Stigma remains one of the biggest barriers to HIV prevention. Many young people avoid seeking information or services because they fear judgment, discrimination, or misunderstanding. This silence can increase risk and prevent access to life-saving prevention options.
At EFI, we believe education is one of the most effective ways to reduce stigma and encourage healthy choices. Through community engagement and youth-focused awareness campaigns, we aim to foster open conversations about HIV prevention and health.
Our future Lenacapavir initiative will place a strong emphasis on creating safe, supportive environments where adolescents can learn about prevention without fear. We want young people to feel empowered to protect themselves and make informed decisions about their health.
Thanks to the generosity of our supporters, we are preparing the foundation for this important work. Additional donations will help us reach more communities, educate more young people, and promote greater acceptance of innovative HIV prevention solutions across Nigeria.
