LEHA self-help group was formed in 2015 to address the isolation and discrimination faced by lesbian, bisexual and queer (LBQ) women, non-binary and gender non-conforming people living in the rural Mount Kenya region.
LBQ people in Kenya face significant issues, including corrective rape, physical and verbal assault, unlawful eviction, denial of entry to recreational spaces, unlawful dismissal from employment, and expulsion from school, as well as frequent ostracisation by family members.
