Health

For over six years, our health programming has focused on women and non-binary individuals, centering equity and intersectionality. As we continue to scale our impact, we remain committed to improving mental and emotional well-being for even more women across diverse communities.

We are dedicated to supporting the mental health and well-being of refugee, asylum-seeking, and BIPOC immigrant women by focusing on approaches that prioritize what fosters well-being, rather than what causes illness. This empowering model strengthens resilience, helping individuals thrive even in adversity.

Our health programming is tailored to the unique needs of the diverse communities we serve, with a strong focus on incorporating their input and leadership throughout program design, implementation, and execution. We engage through a variety of activities, including Women Circles, Community Lunches, Mental Health and Wellness Peer Mentoring, Exercise for Wellbeing, and Healing through Arts and Craft Sessions. Additionally, we provide opportunities for professional development, self-leadership workshops, and months-long employment mentorship programs.
