WISE: Women's Initiative for Self-Empowerment.
Who are we?
We are a 501c3 non-profit organization that trains women to empower themselves and their communities.
What Do We Do?
We provide skills-based training on how to build power and capacity via self and community.
How Do We Do it?
Our three elements of focus include self-defense, social entrepreneurship, leadership & organizing. We provide training in each of these categories to (IM)WISE members and various community and corporate partners. Our trainings range anywhere from 1x, three-hour workshops to year-long programming.
WISE provides high-quality trainings to all persons, regardless of age, disability, gender, gender identity, race, religion, belief, or sexual orientation.
Why Do We Do it?
Whether it is identity-based, gender-based, or state-based- hate-based violence is never acceptable. We believe that by training folx to leverage skills-based training we can take a firm stand against hate. We stand up for ourselves, and our communities.
WISE is more than an organization. WISE is a movement.
