The Women of the World achieves its mission of “supporting refugee women to achieve their dreams” by assisting refugee women to successfully navigate their new surroundings and by offering services in areas such as:

Women of the World Fashion Show

- english language skills
- job skills workshops
- post-secondary education opportunities
- legal advocacy
We work on average with one hundred women & their families in the Salt Lake Valley. Our goal is to reach each refugee woman in our community and ensure she is able to successfully provide for her family. Right now all our services are managed by volunteers. We would like to reach a greater population with more frequent touch points by hiring programmatic staff.  Please help us support our community by contributing to our operating fund today.
