Malikah Safety Center

Located in the heart of “Little Egypt” in Astoria, the Malikah Safety Center is a grassroots hub dedicated to providing direct services, mutual aid, safety training, and community-building resources. Our center specializes in anti-violence advocacy and serves as a safe space for immigrant women, youth, and working-class communities, with a focus on working class and low income Egyptian immigrants in Astoria. We offer critical support in both Arabic and English, ensuring that our services are accessible to everyone in the community. We welcome women and girls from all backgrounds to join us in building stronger, safer communities through education, resources, and solidarity.

The Malikah Safety Center is a place where safety, healing, and collective action come together. Become a member today to access these resources and help us continue creating a safer and more supportive environment for all.
