Empowering Women NFP is a Chicago, Illinois, based 501c3 organization dedicated to providing services to domestic violence survivors and their families, with a primary focus on areas with underserved communities.
Empowering Women NFP assists women who are survivors of domestic violence including physical, emotional, economic and sexual abuse, by providing emotional, legal, life-skills, and employment-related support, along with a broad range of workshops focused on self-reliance. We arrange for temporary, emergency shelter as needed to protect the physical and mental well-being of those we serve. Our team and services are trauma informed.
We believe that a successful organization is based on good governance, transparency, minimal overhead, and a focus on delivering services to survivors of domestic violence.
We aim to reduce social problems such as child abuse, elder abuse, racism and other forms of oppression, that stem from situations of domestic violence. More >>
