Trans Organization Movement (TOM) is a local community based livelihood project which was founded in 2017 by LGBTIQQ Refugees, Health Care Providers and Human Rights Activists. Its purpose is to enable sexual minorities engage in supporting themselves, lead quality lives and be part of programmes fighting poverty. TOM was founded to fill gaps for services targeting Transgender boys, Transgender Girls and non-conforming persons. We want to contribute to a quality life at individual and community level. Being refugees should not be used as an excuse not to be supportive of our host communities.

Vision: A world in which all people in the community can contribute to quality life of everyone.

Long Term Mission: To create spaces in which refugees engage in full community life, enjoy happiness and are assured of fuller quality life without vulnerabilities to HIV/AIDS and STIs.

Project short term mission (2017 – 2020): To form a Community Based Organizations

Project Goal: The 3 H’s

1. House trans-people: Transgender people are frequently evicted or denied homes because they are transgender and they often end up homeless.
2. Holistic health resource centre: This will provide Transgender people opportunities to engage in quality self-care.
3. Hub For Skills Formation: Transgender people experience job discrimination and have high rates of unemployment and poverty. We shall start a hand craft workshop.
