Homelessness

Women of all ages, in more than 7,000 congregational and special units in the United States and the Caribbean, carry out the mission of Women of the ELCA: mobilizing women to act boldly on their faith in Jesus Christ.

The Women's Rights Fund enables the Fund for Global Human Rights to highlight the work of more than eighty women’s rights grantees; underscore the connection between legal, economic and social discrimination against women throughout the world; and attract new financial resources to the Fund—enabling us to expand our grant-making on the range of critical human rights issues affecting women’s everyday lives.

Our vision is a Central America in which young women are guaranteed
their right to physical and emotional integrity, to economic justice
and to participate as leaders in making decisions that will affect
their lives and their communities.

By bringing groups of young women from diverse communities and
cultures throughout Central America together, the Fund contributes to
the construction of a regional movement that seeks new and creative
solutions to problems young women face in their communities.
