Community-led · The Gambia

We are leading our own healing.

Nganiyakilling Support Society is a peer-led community of Gambians living with HIV. Together we face stigma, protect our mental health, and make sure no one carries this alone.

Built by us, for us

Founded and run by people living with HIV, we offer a safe place to be understood — and a path toward dignity, health, and hope.

What we do

Care for the whole person

Living well with HIV is about more than medication. We support the body, the mind, and the connections that hold us up.

Peer support groups

Regular gatherings where members share openly, learn from one another, and feel less alone.

Mental health & counselling

One-to-one and group counselling for depression, anxiety, and the weight of societal pressure.

Treatment adherence

Friendly reminders, accompaniment to clinics, and encouragement to stay on treatment and stay strong.

Our mission

A safe place to be understood

Stigma keeps too many of us silent. We exist so that no Gambian living with HIV has to face fear, isolation, or judgment alone.

  • Reduce stigma through education and visibility
  • Protect the mental health of our members
  • Connect people to treatment, care, and community
  • Speak up for the rights and dignity of people living with HIV
