Message from the Executive Director

I am proud to be part of the Muslim Women Resource Center (MWRC).  We are proud to be the only Muslim Women Organization in the state of Illinois.  Since its foundation in 2001, our goal, at MWRC, has been to facilitate between the needs and expectations of the Immigrant & Refugee Muslim Women and the enormous resources provided for them by Governmental, non-governmental, Foundations and our volunteer donors.  Although our organization is originally designed to serve Muslim women and their families, we are bound by our conviction to serve all immigrants and refugees from all walks of life regardless of gender, faith, race, ethnicity or age.   We strive to help integrate Muslim Women Immigrant population into the mainstream American society by providing them with appropriate skill-sets to enter and lead a productive life in their new home, United States of America. 

We also very strongly believe in an informed community.  Feel free to register for cross-cultural training sessions to better understand cultural differences and turn these differences into our strength as citizens of the United States of American.   If you wish to be part of our efforts, please feel free to contact us and become actively involved.

Sima Quraishi,                                                         Executive Director,                                                       Muslim Women Resource Center
