Overview
WISE' mission is to support immigrant and refugee women, girls and those on the feminine gender spectrum in their journey of self-actualization through culturally-responsive education, advocacy, systems change and resource development. WISE was created by a group of multicultural women in 1995. They came together to address the disparities in the treatment of immigrant women and those born in the U.S. in terms of educational opportunities, employment, and career advancement. Over time the organization has continued to expand its understanding of the dynamics which hold back immigrant and refugee women, girls and those on the feminine gender spectrum from achieving their full potential.
