About Us
Access to Justice for Women, Children and Persons with Special Needs (AJWCPSN) is a nonprofit organization based in Nigeria, dedicated to defending the rights of vulnerable groups, including women, children, and persons with disabilities. Founded in response to a human rights crisis in northern Nigeria, AJWCPSN addresses systemic violations and provides legal protection for those facing discrimination. The organization has handled over 20 significant cases, advocating for justice, equality, and dignity, particularly for individuals persecuted for their beliefs. AJWCPSN focuses on high-risk cases and works to build long-term change in challenging environments.
We believe in the inherent strength and resilience of all women, children, and persons with special needs. They have the power to define their own future and contribute to a more just and equitable society.
