Our Story

Fatima Rehabilitation Initiative Support was founded with a vision to address the growing crisis of substance abuse among vulnerable women and girls in Nigeria. Recognizing the unique challenges faced by women in seeking help and support, we established FRIS as a safe, inclusive, and supportive space for recovery and transformation.

Over the years, we have developed comprehensive programs that address not only recovery but also education, economic empowerment, and mental health support. Our holistic approach has helped hundreds of women and girls rebuild their lives and become agents of positive change in their communities.

Today, FRIS operates in multiple communities across Nigeria, with a growing network of partners and volunteers committed to our mission. We continue to expand our reach and deepen our impact through innovative programs and evidence-based practices.

Our experienced and dedicated team is committed to driving our mission forward.
