About us
Who we are
We are a vibrant, youth-led organization dedicated to supporting and uplifting young people living with HIV.
Born from the need for safe spaces, real representation, and peer-led advocacy, we exist to amplify the voices of positive youths, challenge stigma, and drive lasting change in communities.
Our work is rooted in empathy, powered by resilience, and driven by the belief that young people deserve more than just survival — they deserve to thrive.
We are not just an organization — we are a movement.

Our approach
Our Mission
Our mission is to empower young people living with HIV in the Federal Capital Territory through advocacy, education, peer support, and inclusive programs that promote health, dignity, and leadership.
Through peer education programs, leadership training, mental health support, and targeted advocacy, we empower our members to challenge stigma and drive social change.
Every initiative we lead is rooted in inclusion, dignity, and the understanding that positive youths are not defined by their status, but by their strength, resilience, and potential.
Our Vision
We want to build a Nigeria where every young person living with HIV lives boldly, free from stigma, empowered with knowledge, and supported to thrive.
We envision a future where HIV does not limit any young person’s dreams or opportunities. A future where schools, families, healthcare providers, and the wider community provide understanding, compassion, and equal access to services.
Our vision guides our actions, fuels our innovation, and reminds us every day that change is possible — and it starts with us.
