TRANSCRIPT
Womankind, formerly the New York Asian Women’s Center, works with survivors of gender-based violence to rise above trauma and build a path to healing. We bring critical resources and deep cultural competency to help survivors of all ages in Asian communities find refuge, recovery, and renewal from domestic violence, human trafficking, and sexual violence.
ABOUT US
The National Association of Social Workers : NYC Chapter awarded Womankind the Social Work Image Award in
Direct Practice for our model of practice, Moving Ahead Positively (MAP).
My husband abused me for years, but it wasn’t until I realized he was sexually abusing our two-year old daughter that I took action. We moved into Womankind’s emergency residence and their advocate worked with my daughter through art and play. Such a blessing. They helped my daughter get through this difficult period and provided childcare so that I could find work —all to support our safe transition to our own home. —Diana
After I sustained serious injuries from my husband that required surgery, I relied on a Womankind advocate who spoke my language to explain my options. She helped me obtain a full order of protection against my husband and apply for public assistance. With Womankind by my side, I resumed my job and began working again. Thankfully, I overcame my fears. —Jennifer
