SIDC Lebanon

Overview

Soins Infirmiers et Développement Communautaire (SIDC) is a Lebanese non-profit civil society organization established in 1987 and officially registered in 1992. Initially founded as Service Infirmier à Domicile (SID) to provide home-based nursing care during the Lebanese civil war, it later evolved into SIDC to encompass broader community development initiatives. SIDC's mission is to promote the health and well-being of vulnerable populations, including youth, the elderly, and marginalized groups such as people living with HIV (PLHIV), people who use drugs (PWUD), and the LGBTQ+ community. The organization focuses on key areas like HIV prevention, harm reduction, sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR), and mental health. By engaging these communities, SIDC aims to support them in enjoying their human and gender rights, striving for an inclusive society free of stigma and discrimination at both national and regional levels.
