The Naz Foundation India Trust 3.54

The Naz Foundation (India) Trust is a New Delhi-based Non-Governmental Organization (NGO) working on HIV/AIDS and sexual health issues since 1994. Through the years, Naz India has evolved to implement a holistic approach for combating HIV, involving prevention as well as treatment. Our focus is on reaching out to marginalized populations infected or affected by HIV to help reduce stigma, improve health, and empower families. We also aim to sensitize the general population to the prevalence of HIV, and to highlight issues related to sexuality and sexual health.

We believe in using these key approaches in the battle against HIV/AIDS in India:
- rights-based approach to raising awareness
- unbiased, factual information on HIV and sexual health
- quality care and support to people living with HIV

Naz India's programs include:
- a Care Home for 31 orphaned children living with HIV, the first in North India
- a Home-based Care Program, providing support to families living with and affected by HIV/AIDs, through medical and nursing care, psychosocial support, legal assistance and capacity-building lessons
- Capacity Building and Training Workshops for individuals and organisations on HIV/AIDS, sex and sexuality, and rights-based care giving
- Goal, a girls' empowerment programme implemented in Delhi, Mumbai and Chennai that uses sports and lifeskills education to provide opportunities for at-risk adolescent girls throughout India
- Counseling, Outreach, Medical Treatment, and Legal Services to the LGBT community
- Advocacy and Political Action supporting equal rights and protection for the LGBT community and those living with HIV/AIDS
