Talented youth community fellowship Uganda

Talented Youth Community Fellowship Uganda (TAYCOF) is a trans led, faith based community organization based in Uganda, working at the intersection of faith, human rights, health, and community healing. Founded in 2022, TAYCOF was created in response to the exclusion, violence, stigma, and homelessness experienced by transgender women and gender-diverse people within both religious spaces and broader society. Our work focuses on creating affirming and community led spaces that support healing, dignity, empowerment, and social justice. Through programs centered on harm reduction, mental health and peer support, HIV advocacy, leadership development, economic empowerment, and community outreach, we support transgender and gender-diverse people in navigating systemic barriers while building resilience and collective care. One of our key initiatives is the Nange Healing and Harm Reduction Center, which supports trans survivors of violence, people who use drugs, and other marginalized
