The Institute for WOMEN'S Empowerment, Inc. (IFWE) seeks to assist women in realizing their potential through the examination of current issues and themes that focus on empowerment and leadership development. Planned outcomes for women include:
-
An increased understanding of the meaning of empowerment,
-
Self-empowerment through group participation,

Empowerment through educational processes, and an awareness of the relationship between empowerment and personal behavior.
