Causes & Campaigns

SNAP

Under this program, women are able to build a network of connections to feel the support needed to strive in the right direction to create self-love and self-sustainability.

Sip n See biweekly sisters circle, meetings that consist of multiple topics related to community concerns. Such as abuse, women of the Quran, drugs and alcohol, foster care, health, and hygiene.

Married Sister Circle – monthly meetings that address topics, issues, and stigmas around single and married women. These discussions are for women who are looking to be married, newlywed, and married vets.

Without education, you have no power. It is very important that you learn who you are, where you want to be, and how you will get there. Through this program, we will offer a series of classes, forums, retreats, and transitional living. All to feed the mental, physical, and spiritual being.

Self-Defense – a monthly course that teaches the basics of protecting oneself. you are taught 5 basic moves that will prepare you for any situation.
