Turkish American Women Association

Turkish American Women Association (TAWA) is a non-profit organization dedicated to promoting and stimulating an interest in the colorful and diverse culture of the Turkish community in America. Encouraged by the extreme diversity present in the United States, TAWA was founded in 2003 to represent Turkish culture and to foster cultural interaction between the Turkish and American communities. Utilizing the positive role and effect of women in society and drawing on the feminine values of compassion and understanding, we believe that we can serve as a bridge between the Turkish and American communities. We provide a wide variety of programs and activities ranging from cooking class, Turkish class, picnics, charitable events and community events.
