TWU’s Gender and Generational Healing Justice Program envisions our home, Northern New Mexico, as a place where people of all genders experience body sovereignty, safety, health, and opportunity. Central to our work is healing the root causes of gender-based violence.
Our prevention-focused projects cultivate consent culture through education and the creation of inclusive community spaces. Being the home of both Tewa Women United’s youth and the T’Sayain/Circle of Grandmothers and Wisdomkeepers allows us unique opportunities to weave intergenerational courageous work.
