Women & Girls Empowerment

Mentorship circles for young Igbo women ages 14–24 — pairing emerging leaders with accomplished Anambra community mentors.

Mentorship Program

Dual Cultural Identity as a Superpower

Growing up Igbo in America is a unique experience — one that comes with extraordinary gifts and real challenges. ASDA-DV’s Women & Girls Empowerment program creates structured mentorship circles that help young Igbo women navigate both worlds with confidence and pride.

We pair young women ages 14–24 with accomplished Anambra community mentors who have walked the same path — and who model dual cultural identity not as a burden, but as a superpower.
