Trans Youth Initiative–Uganda is a rural trans led human rights organization working to uphold and advance the health, rights, and well-being of rural transgender youth women, transgender youth sex workers, and gender-diverse youth in Uganda.
Rural trans & gender-diverse sex workers in Uganda are under attack.
Violence, arrests, extortion, and denial of healthcare are daily realities enabled by criminalization, stigma, and silence.
This is a human rights crisis.
Protect rural trans and gender diverse sex workers. End violence now.

AIDS isn’t over.
2025 funding cuts have disrupted HIV prevention & care for millions, hitting trans women, trans sex workers, and rural KPs the hardest.
We can’t “end AIDS” while the most affected lose services first.
Re-invest. Protect prevention. Fund trans-led responses.

As we close Trans Awareness Month, let's remind you that trans people are not the cause of anyone’s problems.
