Mission Statement

AIWA's mission is to empower low-income, limited English speaking Asian immigrant women workers to stimulate positive changes in their workplaces, communities and broader society.

Description

Asian Immigrant Women Advocates (AIWA) is a non-profit, community-based organization that has been providing resources to low-income Asian immigrant women workers for 20 years. AIWA works with women workers employed in the garment, hotel, restaurant, electronics assembly and other low-wage industries in Oakland, San Francisco, and Santa Clara County's "Silicon Valley". AIWA seeks to empower women through education, leadership development and collective action, so that they can fight for dignity and justice in their working and living conditions.

AIWA provides rewarding volunteer and internship opportunities for those committed to social and economic justice for low-income Asian immigrant women workers, their families and their communities.
