Empowering Immigrant Women in Leadership



In our community, we recognize the unique strengths and challenges that immigrant women face as they strive to become leaders in their new surroundings. Our initiative is dedicated to empowering these women, providing them with the tools, resources, and support they need to thrive and lead.


Our Programs:
Leadership Development (Bilicsan)
We provide leadership workshops and mentorship opportunities to enhance the leadership skills of Somali immigrant women, empowering them to take on influential roles within their communities and beyond.
​
Health and Wellness (Iftin)
Through culturally relevant health education and accessible resources, we empower immigrants to prioritize their well-being and make informed decisions about their health. Our efforts include promoting healthy lifestyles, increasing awareness about preventive care, and providing vital information on early detection and the prevention of chronic illnesses, including cancer.
​
Bilow Caafimaad (Healthy Start)
Bilow Caafimaad is a culturally informed early intervention program that supports immigrant families in recognizing early signs of autism and accessing timely, appropriate services. The program focuses on education, early screening, family support, and connection to community-based resources—all within a culturally safe and supportive environment.
​
Educational and Employment Empowerment (Waxbarashada iyo Shaqooyinka)
Our educational programs provide immigrants with access to quality learning opportunities, empowering them to reach their full potential and contribute meaningfully to society. We also support employment through skills training, job placement services, and practical workshops—including a five-week Basic Money Management session—that equip individuals with essential financial literacy skills to build stability, manage daily expenses, and succeed in the workforce.
