Women Fighting AIDS in Kenya

Women Fighting AIDS in Kenya (WOFAK) is a national non-governmental organization founded in 1994 by a group of women who were among the first to go public about their HIV-positive status in Kenya. The organization provides a comprehensive range of services including psychosocial support, home-based care, nutritional assistance, and economic empowerment programs for women and children living with HIV/AIDS. WOFAK operates several resource centers across Kenya, focusing on reducing stigma, preventing mother-to-child transmission, and advocating for the rights of people living with HIV. Their work is centered on community-based interventions and policy advocacy to improve the quality of life for affected families.
