Achievers Improved Health Initiative is a non profit organization founded in 2014, to address the health and rights needs of diverse marginalized/minority persons in Nigeria. This was in response to the effect of the syncretism of culture and religion in our context that exacerbates their lived experiences, leaving them more vulnerable to stigma and discrimination. Our primary purpose was to provide quality information and access to services that would reduce stigma surrounding HIV/AIDS, non-conforming identities, and improve quality of life.
