Amal is a registered, non-profit, community-based organization focused on addressing the needs of women and their families affected by domestic abuse. This community initiative was launched early in 2002 by a group of committed Muslim women, to respond to a growing need for a psychosocial centre specializing in women's issues. The name "Amal" comes from the Arabic language and means "hope" because we at Amal believe that the community has a responsibility to provide hope and aid to women and their families facing domestic abuse.
