Protect Nigerian Teens from HIV with Lenacapavir

Dear Partners,

Successful HIV prevention begins with strong communities. Families, teachers, health workers, youth leaders, and community organizations all play a role in helping adolescents make informed decisions about their health.

Our project recognizes that prevention is most effective when communities are engaged and supportive. That is why EFI is preparing outreach strategies that involve multiple stakeholders in awareness and prevention efforts.

Lenacapavir offers an opportunity to strengthen HIV prevention among adolescents, but community understanding and trust will be essential for success. Through collaboration and education, we hope to build environments where prevention is encouraged and supported.

We are grateful to our first donors for helping us take these early steps. Their contributions are helping us prepare for future implementation and community engagement activities. We invite more supporters to join this effort and help us create healthier, more informed communities throughout Nigeria.

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.
