Asian Women for Health (AWFH) is a non-profit organization dedicated to advancing the health and well-being of Asian Women and people from diverse, underrepresented backgrounds through community engagement, education, and representation. We envision a world where Asian Women and underrepresented community members are well-informed, have access to care that is culturally appropriate and high quality, and inspired to live happy, healthy lives.
UPCOMING EVENTS
Welcome to AWFH Tea Talks: Traditional Chinese Medicine For Preventative Health! Treating for wellness rather than illness is what separates Chinese Medicine from modern day health care.

30th may, 2024
On May 30th, Asian Women for Health (AWFH) held their annual but first of its kind CelebrAsians Gala. The event was a vibrant showcase of diverse Asian heritage, with guests donning a wide array of traditional garments from flowing lehnga cholis, saris and intricate kimonos to striking hanboks and shalwar kameez!
We all gathered as a community with a shared vision — an inclusive and equitable healthcare system! The gala also featured a Kathak performance by Anjali Nath, which captivated everyone in attendance.
