Wholeness & Justice

Wholeness & Justice is a programme managed by CAISO: Sex & Gender Justice that expands access by LGBTQI+ people in Trinidad and Tobago to wholeness, justice, and health and human services.

The programme is committed to responding to violations of LGBTQI+ community members, with an emphasis on trans, non-binary, gender-non-conforming and intersex people; and to deliver clinically competent, trauma-informed interventions that enable healing and resilience. We aim to reduce client vulnerability; strengthen individual self-advocacy, justice-seeking, community mutual action and vigilance, and citizenship; reduce impunity; and make systems more responsive and just.

Wholeness & Justice is currently funded by the Arcus and Astraea Foundations. The Wholeness & Justice team of service providers comprises a Community Lawyer, Clinical Administrator, Community Caseworker, and Programme Associate, each with key expertise and experience.
