Tahirih is proud to welcome five distinguished members from prominent organizations and corporations to our Board of Directors.

Working as a paralegal at Tahirih helped me to recognize a deep strength that is inherent to women. I realized this especially working on a case with a client where I had to write out her story. Hearing from her firsthand about why she refused to be subjected to violence, including her motivation to protect her children, sincerely moved me. Many clients told me how they are educating their sons to treat women with respect. Throughout the year, I witnessed the potential and power of women and how they can influence the world if they are allowed to be a bigger part of it.

The award is a reflection of Tahirih’s record of efficiency, excellence, good governance and ethics, and fiscal responsibility, and Tahirih was selected for the honor from a field of more than 200 organizations.

America’s premier charity evaluator gave Tahirih a 4-star rating for the second year in a row.

The training series is possible through a grant from the U.S. Department of Justice’s Office on Violence Against Women.
