You are not alone. You have a voice.
We stand beside immigrant women across Poland — breaking silence, navigating systems, and building futures together, no matter where you come from.
Who we are?
A Bridge where there was none
Poland is home to thousands of immigrant women from across the world — each carrying her own language, culture, and story. Many arrive to find a country that is deeply homogenous, where cultural differences go unrecognised and systems feel impossibly foreign. Without Polish, without family, without anyone to ask — women find themselves invisible, trapped, and voiceless.
“Sisters” exists to change that. We are a bridge between communities long overlooked by local systems. Whether you are facing domestic abuse rooted in dowry culture, trapped in a coercive marriage, fleeing danger, or simply trying to find your footing as a woman of colour in a new country — we are here, and we understand.

Frequently Asked Questions.
“sisters” in Poland supports immigrant women living in Poland, including women from Indian, African, and Arab communities, as well as refugee women and women of colour. If you are a foreign woman in Poland who feels unsafe, isolated, or unheard — this space is for you. You do not need to have legal status or speak Polish to reach out.
Yes. All of our services — the helpline, consultations, guidance, and referrals — are completely free of charge. We believe no woman should face a financial barrier when seeking safety or support.
We treat everything you share with us with the utmost care and discretion. We will never share your personal information without your permission. If you need help contacting authorities, we will always do so together with you and with your consent.
If you are in immediate danger, please call emergency services (112 in Poland) right away. Once you are safe, contact our helpline. We will listen without judgement, help you understand your options, and guide you step by step — whether that means finding shelter, contacting the police, or simply having someone to talk to.
Polish authorities may not always be familiar with culturally specific forms of abuse such as dowry violence, forced marriage, or honour-based coercion. This is exactly why we exist. We act as a bridge — explaining your situation to authorities in a way they understand, advocating on your behalf, and making sure your case is taken seriously.
Yes. If you need to leave your home urgently, we can help connect you with emergency shelters and safe accommodation in Poland. We will guide you through the process and make sure you are not left alone in a moment of crisis.
Yes, absolutely. Many women fear leaving an abusive situation because of their immigration status. We understand this completely. We can help you understand your legal options and connect you with organisations that support women in your specific immigration situation. Your safety comes first.
We can accompany you — in person where possible, or by phone — when you need to speak with police, local authorities, or social services. Navigating Polish institutions as a foreigner is overwhelming. We help bridge the language gap and the cultural gap so your voice is heard and your situation is understood.
You can reach us via our helpline, by email, or through our social media pages. All contact details are on our website. If you are in immediate danger, please call 112 (Poland’s emergency number) first, then reach out to us as soon as you are safe.
