About
AJWS currently supports over 86 community-based organizations in seven countries throughout Mesoamerica and the Caribbean. AJWS grantmaking helps fund organizations that are advancing sexual health and rights for women, girls, sexual minorities, and sex workers; defending the rights of marginalized groups working toward justice and equality; defending access to food, land and livelihoods; and responding to the needs of marginalized communities before, during and after conflicts and natural disasters.
On our study tours we visit AJWS grantees who are striving to overcome poverty and injustice in these communities and are being helped by such organizations.
