Ujima is a national resource center that addresses domestic, sexual and community violence while developing an active approach to ending violence against women in the Black community. Recognizing that the safety and viability of Black families is connected to the health and well- being of individual neighborhoods and communities at large, Ujima provides education and outreach, training and technical assistance, resource development, research, and public policy efforts designed to mobilize the Black community and allies to strengthen families. Ujima defines community as the African Diaspora in its broadest sense, e.g., African- Americans (descendants of slaves in the U.S.), African immigrants, Afro-Caribbeans, and Afro-Latinx.
