Latin American Women's Rights Service
We are a human rights, feminist organisation run by and for Latin American migrant women living in the UK. We support 5,000 women every year who are exposed to violations of their fundamental human rights, facing violence against women and girls, exploitation in low-paid sectors, trafficking, or enduring severe poverty and deprivation. Our direct support includes casework for women experiencing gender-based violence, counselling and emotional support, advice on benefits, money and debts, employment rights, family law and immigration, workshops and other integration activities. We also actively advocate for women’s rights, migrant’s rights and the rights of ethnic minorities at local, national and EU levels, working with sister organisations in the women and migrant sectors, as well as networks and campaigns, to tackle the vulnerabilities faced by Latin American women, who are affected by intersectional layers of discrimination.
