Fighting Drug Abuse & HIV/AIDS in Kenya (FIDAK)We are a non-profit organization, fighting drug abuse, HIV/AIDS and human rights violations in Kenya. Our Main goal is to raise awareness among rural communities and to provide preventative education with a view to mitigating the spread of HIV/AIDS, escalation of harm from substance abuse and violation of human rights in the rural communities of Kenya and its urban slums.
Lately, Kenyan street children, like Brazilian street children, have gone into a frenzy of glue sniffing on every street corner in the Kenyan urban centers. Everywhere in these towns there are tiny minors with plastic bottles held at their noses, sniffing glue in ecstasy. After glue sniffing, the young street boys and girls advance to taking hard drugs like Cocaine, Heroine, and Mandrax. Crime and prostitution become the only means of affording these drugs. Drug addiction is a gateway to HIV infection because one who is on drugs is unlikely to practice safe sex. Lately, the hard drugs have become readily available on Kenyan streets.
A number of these children have been found seriously wounded and sometimes dead on the city streets, as a result of overdosing. The supply sources of glue and other associated drugs are in abundance. Some vendors are among the street children themselves.
FIDAK targets the youth, who are the majority of those who feel the brunt of drugs and substance abuse. The youth are also a vulnerable group with respect to human rights violations. |

This is a great post. I think that it should be distributed and read by all people to make us aware of the detrimental effects of drug abuse and unsafe and immoral sex. Thank you Adriana.
