ABOUt us
ERIPOTO for Girls and Women is committed to providing a safe haven to women and girls who have experienced violence, abuse, and early forced marriages. We take a holistic approach to care, offering a Safe House for immediate protection and counseling. Our goal is to provide comprehensive, long-term solutions to the challenges survivors of violence face, empowering young women and girls through education and giving them the support they need to build better futures.
ERIPOTO also offers a range of violence prevention and empowerment programs in schools and communities across northern Tanzania, and we support children and families in our local neighborhood with a preschool program that emphasizes early childhood development, emotional well-being, and English language learning.
