Compassion
Care, empathy, and understanding for every person served.
Our story
A lifetime of care.
A shared purpose.
Joyce Angulo Foundation is a community-based organisation serving Lira City, Northern Uganda.
Inspired by Joyce Angulo
Joyce Angulo is a retired registered nurse whose life and career have been dedicated to caring for vulnerable women, children, girls, persons with disabilities, and older people. She witnessed the effects of domestic violence, poverty, war, and exclusion on families.
As a single mother, she invested in her children’s education while mentoring women and girls in healthcare. The Foundation carries that spirit of service into community-based support.
Our mission
To provide comprehensive support through healthcare support, counselling, educational opportunities, life skills, mentorship, advocacy, and community-based care; and to promote the rights, dignity, wellbeing, and participation of vulnerable people.
Our vision
Safe, supportive, and self-reliant communities where vulnerable people can live with dignity, hope, and opportunity, and older people receive respect, care, and equal opportunities.

Programme 5 of 7 · Article 5, Objective 5
Caregiver & Family Support
Helping families and volunteers provide safer, more respectful everyday care.
The problem
Older people may rely on relatives, neighbours, or volunteers for daily support. JAF’s proposal identifies a need to strengthen the people providing that care, particularly where illness, disability, mental health concerns, or limited resources make care more demanding.
The gap in support
Willingness to help needs to be supported by practical knowledge. Families and volunteers may need guidance on nutrition, hygiene, respectful communication, disability inclusion, safeguarding, and recognising when professional help is required.
What is being done
Caregiver and family training is an explicit Article 5 programme and a defined activity in JAF’s proposed care model. Joyce Angulo’s nursing and mentorship background informs the Foundation’s approach. Completed training sessions and numbers of trained caregivers have not yet been reported for this website.
How JAF is closing the gap
JAF plans to train family members, community caregivers, and volunteers in basic elderly care. The programme will put dignity, safe practice, and the older person’s needs and choices at the centre of support.
Turning the response into action
JAF’s programme activities
- Develop practical training in basic care, nutrition, hygiene, and respectful communication.
- Include mental health, loneliness, dementia awareness, and disability inclusion.
- Build understanding of safeguarding and prevention of abuse or neglect.
- Help caregivers recognise concerns that require referral to qualified services.
What this programme aims to change
Families and volunteers are better equipped to provide respectful, safe care and seek help when needed.
How progress will be tracked
- Caregivers and volunteers trained
- Training sessions completed
- Participant feedback and learning needs
- Follow-up support needs identified
These are intended outcomes and proposed monitoring measures, not reported results.
A little care can mean
a great deal.
Help build a community where older people feel valued, included, and supported.
Programme 1 of 7 · Article 5, Objective 1
Community Mapping & Identification
Finding older people whose needs are overlooked, so support begins with an understanding of their circumstances.
The problem
JAF’s programme proposal identifies older people who live alone, have chronic illnesses or disabilities, lack reliable income, or care for vulnerable grandchildren. Their medical, emotional, social, and material needs may remain unseen when they cannot easily reach services or ask for help.
The gap in support
The proposal identifies limited community data on older people in need. Without a consistent way to identify people and understand their circumstances, support can miss isolated households and urgent needs can remain unrecognised.
What is being done
JAF’s documented home visits provide a starting point for understanding people’s circumstances face to face. Article 5 makes community mapping a specific programme priority. A completed community register or baseline assessment is not yet reported in the materials available for this website.
How JAF is closing the gap
JAF plans to conduct community mapping and a baseline assessment in selected communities, identify vulnerable older people, and register their needs with informed consent. This will help connect identified needs with home visits, practical assistance, and appropriate referrals.
Turning the response into action
JAF’s programme activities
- Identify older people living alone or facing illness, disability, poverty, or limited family support.
- Assess living conditions, caregiver availability, food security, access to healthcare, and psychosocial needs.
- Record only relevant information with informed consent and confidential handling.
- Use findings to prioritise follow-up and coordinate support across JAF’s programmes.
What this programme aims to change
Older people who might otherwise be overlooked are identified and linked to appropriate support.
How progress will be tracked
- Older people identified and registered
- Baseline needs assessments completed
- Identified needs linked to follow-up or referral
These are intended outcomes and proposed monitoring measures, not reported results.
A little care can mean
a great deal.
Help build a community where older people feel valued, included, and supported.
Community support
Showing up matters.
Home visits, shared moments, and seasonal packages connect practical support with companionship.
A visit at home
An Easter package.
A human connection.
The Foundation’s community photographs document a visit to Imat Aida’s home to deliver her Easter package. Home visits make space for connection, listening, and time together.
Seasonal giving
Sharing at Christmas.
Community members gathered with Christmas packages reflect the Foundation’s practical support work. Further support depends on available resources and identified needs.
To discuss contributing food, hygiene items, clothing, or other household essentials, contact the Foundation before arranging delivery.

Urgent help

Programme 6 of 7 · Article 5, Objective 6
Digital Care Coordination & Monitoring
Using practical digital tools to help care teams organise visits, follow up, and learn.
The problem
The Foundation’s proposal identifies limited community data and weak referral systems. As care involves more households and volunteers, registration, visits, changing needs, and follow-up information need to be organised and kept confidential.
The gap in support
A visit or referral has limited value if the next person supporting the household cannot follow up appropriately. The gap is a simple, secure way to coordinate care and report progress without excluding older people who have limited phone access or literacy.
What is being done
JAF’s proposal specifies digital registration, visit monitoring, referral tracking, and reporting. Possible tools include mobile data collection, a simple dashboard, and assisted reporting. A live JAF care-management system or completed digital rollout is not claimed on this website.
How JAF is closing the gap
JAF plans to develop or adapt affordable digital tools for registration, follow-up, referral tracking, monitoring, and reporting. Volunteers will assist with records while face-to-face care continues, so technology supports access rather than becoming a requirement for help.
Turning the response into action
JAF’s programme activities
- Develop or adapt a simple beneficiary register and visit-follow-up process.
- Track referrals and actions needing follow-up by the care team.
- Prepare monitoring reports to support coordination, learning, and accountability.
- Build informed consent, confidentiality, and secure storage into digital and paper records.
What this programme aims to change
Care teams can coordinate support more reliably while protecting personal information and maintaining face-to-face access.
How progress will be tracked
- Completeness and quality of care records
- Visits and referrals recorded for follow-up
- Monitoring reports completed
- Staff and volunteer feedback on tool usability
These are intended outcomes and proposed monitoring measures, not reported results.
A little care can mean
a great deal.
Help build a community where older people feel valued, included, and supported.
Proposed programme · Seeking support
Ageing with dignity.
A community-based care model designed to help older people live healthier, safer, and more connected lives in Lira City.
Care within the community
The Foundation is seeking support to establish a structured elderly-care programme. It brings together regular home visits, practical assistance, psychosocial support, and connections to health and social services.
The programme is proposed; the activities below describe the planned model, rather than a claim that every service is already operating.
Delivered through seven programmes
The care model brings together the seven programmes established under Article 5 of the constitution.
Explore all seven programmes →How the model will work
- Listen and identify needs. Community mapping will help identify older people who need social, emotional, medical, or material support.
- Build trusted connections. Trained volunteers will provide regular home visits, companionship, and wellbeing follow-up.
- Connect people to services. The programme aims to support referrals, health education, and follow-up with appropriate providers.
- Strengthen everyday care. Caregiver training will cover respectful communication, nutrition, hygiene, disability inclusion, and safe home care.
- Learn and improve. Field reports and simple digital tools will help coordinate visits and track support, with informed consent and confidential handling of information.
What success would look like
More consistent care, less isolation, stronger family support, and better access to services. Planned monitoring includes visits completed, referrals followed up, caregiver training, and beneficiary feedback.
A community that cares
There is a place for you
in this work.
Looking ahead
Opportunity that lasts.
The Foundation’s long-term plans extend care into skills, safety, and stronger community resources.
Life skills and livelihoods
A proposed community training centre would offer access to sewing machines, hair salon equipment, and computers, supporting practical skills and mentorship for women, girls, and youth.
Safety and support
The long-term vision includes a holding centre or shelter for survivors of domestic violence before reintegration into the community, alongside connections to appropriate support services.
Clean water
The Foundation also aspires to support shallow wells and boreholes in vulnerable communities.
A vision to develop together
These are long-term plans, dependent on funding, partnerships, and implementation arrangements. They are not presented as existing facilities or currently available services.
Programme 3 of 7 · Article 5, Objective 3
Healthcare & Essential Support
Helping older people connect to healthcare and meet essential everyday needs.
The problem
JAF’s proposal identifies limited access to healthcare and medication, food insecurity, inadequate household essentials, and difficulty travelling to health facilities. Older people with chronic illness or disability may face several of these challenges at once.
The gap in support
Identifying a health need is not the same as helping someone reach care. Transport, referral follow-up, food, hygiene materials, and other basic items can remain missing between the household and the services it needs.
What is being done
JAF’s photographs document Easter and Christmas packages and community visits. These provide evidence of practical support. The broader medical support, health education, and coordinated referral activities are set out in the programme proposal; completed clinical services and referral results are not claimed here.
How JAF is closing the gap
JAF plans to help older people access appropriate healthcare through referrals, follow-up, health education, and coordination with health workers. Where resources allow, it will also provide food and essential non-food items to people in greatest need.
Turning the response into action
JAF’s programme activities
- Connect identified medical needs with appropriate health facilities and qualified health workers.
- Support referral follow-up and access to care, including transport support where resources permit.
- Promote health, nutrition, and hygiene awareness through appropriate providers.
- Provide food, soap, bedding, clothing, basic household items, or assistive devices where available and appropriate.
What this programme aims to change
Older people face fewer practical barriers to healthcare and essential support.
How progress will be tracked
- Healthcare referrals made and followed up
- Food and non-food packages distributed
- Older people supported to access services
- Reported barriers requiring further assistance
These are intended outcomes and proposed monitoring measures, not reported results.
A little care can mean
a great deal.
Help build a community where older people feel valued, included, and supported.
Programme 2 of 7 · Article 5, Objective 2
Community-Based Care & Home Visits
Bringing care and companionship closer to older people, in the places they call home.
The problem
Older people living alone or with mobility challenges may struggle to reach community activities and services. JAF’s proposal describes households facing illness, disability, loneliness, and limited family support, where everyday needs can go unnoticed.
The gap in support
A single visit or occasional gift cannot provide the consistency of regular care. The gap is an organised system of trained visitors, repeat contact, and follow-up when health, wellbeing, or protection concerns arise.
What is being done
JAF has documented community visits, including a visit to Imat Aida’s home to deliver an Easter package. These activities demonstrate personal contact and practical support. A regular trained-volunteer visiting schedule is part of the proposed expansion.
How JAF is closing the gap
JAF aims to establish regular home visits by trained community volunteers and caregivers. Visits will combine companionship with wellbeing checks, awareness of hygiene and nutrition, recognition of concerns, and connections to appropriate services.
Turning the response into action
JAF’s programme activities
- Recruit and train community volunteers and caregivers for respectful, safe home visits.
- Arrange regular visits and follow up on needs identified during earlier contact.
- Offer companionship and listen to the older person’s own priorities and choices.
- Recognise health or protection concerns and connect people with qualified providers or appropriate local support.
What this programme aims to change
Older people receive more consistent personal contact, with concerns recognised and followed up earlier.
How progress will be tracked
- Home visits completed
- Older people receiving regular visits
- Concerns followed up or referred
- Beneficiary feedback on support received
These are intended outcomes and proposed monitoring measures, not reported results.
A little care can mean
a great deal.
Help build a community where older people feel valued, included, and supported.

A little care can mean
a great deal.
Help build a community where older people feel valued, included, and supported.
Dignity & safety
Care must begin with respect.
The Foundation’s proposed care programme places safeguarding, informed consent, and inclusion at the centre of its approach.
Our approach
People receiving support should be treated with respect, without abuse, neglect, exploitation, or discrimination. Support should recognise personal choice, independence, cultural values, disability, and the needs of people who may require additional assistance.
For volunteers and partners
- Agree activities and supervision with the Foundation before visiting beneficiaries.
- Respect privacy and seek appropriate consent before taking or sharing photographs and personal information.
- Do not request payment, favours, or personal benefits in exchange for support.
- Raise concerns about unsafe conduct with the Foundation’s leadership.
Raising a concern
Concerns can be brought to the General Manager or Foundation leadership through the office at Telela Village, Boroboro East Ward, Lira City, Uganda. A dedicated confidential reporting telephone or email is not currently published on this website.
For immediate danger or urgent medical needs, seek assistance from local emergency services or an appropriate health facility. Do not wait for a website response.
Programme development
The project proposal includes safe home-visit procedures, confidential records, informed consent, and clear reporting channels as implementation requirements. This page summarises the approach; it is not a claim that a complete operational safeguarding system has already been implemented.
Programme 4 of 7 · Article 5, Objective 4
Social Connection & Psychosocial Support
Creating opportunities for older people to be heard, included, and connected.
The problem
JAF’s proposal describes loneliness, grief, trauma, neglect, and social isolation among older people. Those living alone or with reduced mobility may have few opportunities to share experiences, build friendships, or receive emotional support.
The gap in support
Material assistance does not by itself meet emotional and social needs. The gap is regular, accessible companionship, opportunities for peer connection, and appropriate psychosocial support rather than only occasional contact.
What is being done
JAF’s documented home visits and seasonal gatherings create opportunities for personal connection. The structured support groups, safe meeting spaces, and counselling described in its proposal are programme activities to be developed; an established counselling service is not represented as currently available.
How JAF is closing the gap
JAF plans to create community support groups and safe spaces where older people can interact, share experiences, and receive psychosocial support. Home-based companionship will help include people who cannot easily attend gatherings.
Turning the response into action
JAF’s programme activities
- Organise accessible peer-support groups and community meeting opportunities.
- Provide listening sessions and companionship that respect individual preferences.
- Develop appropriate counselling and psychosocial support arrangements.
- Use home visits to keep older people with mobility barriers connected to support.
What this programme aims to change
Older people feel more connected, listened to, and included in community life.
How progress will be tracked
- Older people participating in support activities
- Community support sessions held
- Beneficiary feedback on loneliness and wellbeing
- Follow-up support identified through listening sessions
These are intended outcomes and proposed monitoring measures, not reported results.

Read about governance & registration ↗Programme 7 of 7 · Article 5, Objective 7
Sustainable Community Care Development
Building a locally rooted model that can support more communities over time.
The problem
The Foundation’s proposal describes long-term needs that extend beyond one household or one seasonal activity. Poverty, isolation, and barriers to care require sustained community support rather than a response that ends after an individual visit or distribution.
The gap in support
The gap is a model with trained local people, reliable coordination, learning, and continuing resources. Expansion also needs evidence from implementation, so growth does not outpace the ability to provide safe, meaningful care.
What is being done
JAF has community roots, documented support activities, a constitution, and a proposed structured care model. Its plan identifies volunteer development, partnerships, monitoring, and a sustainability strategy as the foundations for expansion. A completed scale-up or established partner network is not claimed here.
How JAF is closing the gap
JAF aims to develop a sustainable care model in Lira City that can be expanded to other communities in Northern Uganda. It plans to build local ownership, train volunteers, seek partnerships, document learning, and use monitoring to guide improvement and growth.
Turning the response into action
JAF’s programme activities
- Build local participation and ownership through community engagement.
- Train volunteers and seek collaboration with local leaders, health facilities, and community organisations.
- Review implementation, collect feedback, and document lessons learned.
- Develop a sustainability and scale-up plan linked to available resources and the quality of care.
What this programme aims to change
A practical, community-led care model that can continue locally and expand responsibly as capacity grows.
How progress will be tracked
- Local volunteers trained and participating
- Partnership arrangements established
- Community feedback and programme reviews completed
- Sustainability and scale-up planning milestones
These are intended outcomes and proposed monitoring measures, not reported results.
