HIAS PA provides legal and social services to the foreign-born regardless of religion, race, national origin, sexual orientation or disability. With respect to Safety, under its Interpersonal and Domestic Violence Project, HIAS provides legal assistance for women who qualify for immigration benefits under the Violence Against Women Act (VAWA) because they have been abused by a US citizen or permanent resident spouse. WOMEN'S WAY's grant helps HIAS to significantly sustain its Interpersonal and Domestic Violence Project at a time when funding for immigrant-focused work and VAWA is in serious jeopardy.
