Started by women in Detroit from Africa, the U.S. and the Caribbean, UAWO became an organization in 2001 and is now a 501(c)(3) nonprofit.
Our mission is to mobilize women of African descent in Michigan: a support network, a home for our culture, and help for women and children reaching their educational and professional goals.
