Karuna Women Lead

SEWA-AIFW is excited to announce the start of an initiative "Karuna Women Lead" program focused on South Asian Women's Economic Empowerment in Minnesota. As part of this initiative, we are currently offering sponsorships to a select group of women for behind-the-wheel training, led by women instructors. Our priority for this training is survivors of Domestic Violence and Intimate Partner Violence.

Applicants must hold a valid instructor's permit. Space is limited.

 This is a one year program where mentors and mentees are matched based on their professional and personal interests and skills. The matching process is conducted by the advisory committee, and also involves Face to Face (virtual, or onsite) interview.​
