Women United Around the World We believe in celebrating, advocating
and assisting women locally and globally to achieve independence through vocational training and community connection.

Women United Around the World ("WUAW") is a non-profit organization that helps female immigrants acclimate into a new environment. WUAW promotes skills training and leadership development programs. We also reach out to women globally providing them with the necessary support and education. WUAW works with female immigrants coming from all national, ethnic, and religious backgrounds. We are connect

ed with cross-community projects and activities to help reduce inter-group prejudice between communities within Maine and promote positive and caring relations. We offer a range of services, including:
• Mentoring women;
• Help acclimate female immigrants new to Maine through a welcome packet and matching them with a volunteer to help with the settlement process;
• Know Your Rights Series: we offer learning and conversation workshops and opportunities on a variety of topics, including higher education, rights in the workplace, gender equality, access to education, healthcare, child care, and subsidized housing;
• Trade skills workshops: professional, industrial sewing. WUAW's organizational goals are as follows:
• Promote independence for female immigrants to recognize and develop their potential, and pursue better educational and professional opportunities;
•Through grassroots and transformative leadership empower female immigrants to become role models and mentors for other young immigrant women, and agents of change in and for their communities;
• Provide a safe space and support network;
• Provide a platform for immigrant women to tell their stories and express their voice to raise public awareness and promote a more positive discourse about female immigrants;
• Provide support and community inclusion for female immigrants new to Maine.
