Love Canal NGO

Love Canal focuses on offering medical and empowering content on social media, providing a platform for women to discuss social and physical issues anonymously. Our initiative covers various campaigns digitally and through other means of communication. We are committed to delivering judgment-free, fact-based content that empowers and educates both men and women on critical issues faced by women in Armenia, including medical ethics on SRH issues, privacy concerns, contraception usage, sexually transmitted infections (STIs), sexually transmitted diseases (STDs), menstrual health management, and mental health counseling. Women in Armenian communities face numerous health, social, and economic consequences due to the lack of sexual health education. Love Canal aims to address this knowledge gap through a comprehensive awareness program, providing medical counseling, collecting data and statistics, and empowering women to have open conversations about their health.
