Straight Talk Foundation is a Ugandan civil society organisation (CSO) that reaches young people and adults through multiple channels to help them tell their own stories and "re-script" their lives. Founded as an NGO in 1997, Straight Talk Foundation (STF) grew out of the teen newspaper Straight Talk, which commenced publishing in 1993.

Today STF produces five newspapers, radio shows in 17 languages, runs four youth centres and conducts a large range of outreach work. An organisation passionately devoted to African mother tongue languages, we are proud to be a voice for adolescents and adults, carrying out comprehensive sex education through the media.

We build our staff's capacity through training, mentoring and the opportunity for meaningful work within communities. STF is a key supplier of literacy materials countrywide and the main source of Behaviour Change Communication (BCC) materials for adolescents. In addition, we are a resource for ministries, CSOs and other agencies who wish to use communication for social and behaviour change.
