Nigerian NGOs That Work Against Sexual Violence by nigerianngo: 10:15pm On Jun 26, 2021
There has been a spike in the number of reported sexual violence cases in Nigeria and to enable victims get the necessary help they need, we have come up with a list of four Non-Governmental Organisations that fight against sexual violence. These NGO's support victims of sexual violence by providing free medical examination, legal support and therapy.

1. Media Concern

The activities at Media Concern include a crisis response centre, victim advocacy programs, 24 hour confidential help lines, resource centre on Sexual Violence, children's project, psycho-social support and free HIV screening.
