On February 23, 2022, I left my husband with no job, no phone except the one the police gave me, and no legal certainty.

What followed was months of navigating systems that were never designed to work together. Legal aid, immigration filings, housing applications, Medicaid, SNAP, work authorization. The resources existed. They were just scattered. And I was the one responsible for holding the map, while also just trying to survive.

That is why SADIA exists.

SADIA is a nonprofit care coordination platform for immigrant women survivors of domestic violence in Texas. One entry point to every resource they need. Legal aid, housing, immigration support, trauma care. Free to the women we serve, available in 11 languages.

I built the framework behind it. I proved it on a TEDx stage and at the United Nations. In June 2026, SADIA became a registered Texas nonprofit corporation. Now I need to get operational.

This $50,000 funds SADIA’s first year of operations so we can get legally established, build our provider network, and serve our first cohort of women.

Give what you can. It gets us closer to making sure she’s never alone in that moment.

Can’t give right now? Share this with someone who can.

SADIA is a registered Texas nonprofit corporation. 501(c)(3) federal tax-exempt status in process. Donations are not yet tax-deductible.
