The Humsafar Trust

The Humsafar Trust The Humsafar Trust (HST) is India's oldest community-based organization (CBO) working on health & well-being of LGBTQ+ since 1994.

The Humsafar Trust was founded in April 1994. At that time prejudice and conventional Indian societal values prevented MSM and transgender Indians from getting effective health services. The initial focus of Humsafar Trust was on activism for providing HIV/AIDS health services to gay men but soon expanded to provide guidance, checkups, hospital referrals, confidential HIV testing, counseling, and outreach for the complete spectrum of the LGBT community.
