About us

A mission of awareness, healing and dignity.

Diaspora Intervention Network of Awareness and Healing — supporting women and girls across Black communities since 2020.

Our story

It began with a refusal to look away.

DINAH Mission was established in 2020 by Ohemaa Adom K, who saw the same story repeating across the diaspora: women and girls carrying the weight of abuse and trauma privately, without language, without support, and without anywhere safe to set it down.

What started as conversations became circles. Circles became workshops. Workshops became a registered charity with a clear name and a clear purpose — the Diaspora Intervention Network of Awareness and Healing.

Why DINAH Mission was created

Because the existing doors were not built for these women.

Too many services ask survivors to explain their culture before they can explain their pain. DINAH Mission exists so that women and girls in Black communities can arrive already understood — their faith, family structures, migration history and community expectations taken seriously rather than treated as obstacles.

The need we respond to

Trauma is common. Safe places to name it are not.

Sexual abuse, domestic harm, generational trauma and emotional exhaustion do not disappear when they go unspoken — they relocate into the body, into relationships, into the next generation.

We respond to that need with awareness education, trauma-informed healing spaces, mentorship for girls, and holistic well-being programming that treats recovery as a whole-person process.

Our mission

To empower women and girls in Black communities through awareness, healing and safe spaces — so that trauma is neither hidden nor carried alone.

Our vision

A diaspora where every woman and girl has access to healing, self-discovery and holistic well-being — and where silence no longer protects harm.

Our community commitment

We move at the pace of trust.

Confidentiality is the floor, not a feature — what is shared in our spaces stays there.
Programming is trauma-informed and culturally grounded, designed with the community it serves.
No one is asked to relive their story to qualify for support.
Healing is treated as emotional, physical, spiritual and communal at once.
