Leaving their country in just the clothes on their backs, displaced Afghan women are in the United States facing the intricacies of the American way of life:
- our laws that can protect them,
- our customs that could mystify them, and
- our society which has been built in a crucible of active diversity.
Join us March 10th at 5:30pm PT/8:30pm ET
NFBPWC stands with our newly minted American sisters!
The Afghan Women Project works to empower displaced Afghan women to continue to support themselves and achieve the many rights and dignities that all Americans enjoy today.
Attend and learn more about this project from Emily VanVleck and Djenabou Bah, two of our Young BPW members who spearheaded this project with their NYC club and fellow NFBPWC members from across the country.
We look forward to seeing you on March 10th!
