LET'S HEAL TOGETHER
We are committed to providing a secure and supportive environment for immigrant mothers and their children who are victims of psychological and/or physical violence. Our goal is to offer a safe platform for communication, guidance, and assistance to help them rebuild their lives.
Our primary focus is to support immigrant mothers in Denmark who have experienced domestic abuse. IM VALID provides these women with essential information, guidance, and protection, connecting them with financial resources, therapeutic services, and practical assistance as they transition from crisis centers to stability.
We aim to raise awareness about IM VALID among Danish organizations and foster collaboration to support immigrant mothers and their children affected by domestic violence. By building partnerships, we can expand access to critical resources and create a stronger network of care.
Im valid. I matter. I have a voice. I am a mother. I am an immigrant woman.
I am a victim of abuse. My children are also victims of abuse as they have seen me being abused, psychologically and or physically. Both are equally dangerous.
I have opened my mouth and dared to speak up about it.
And I speak the truth.
I have escaped the abuse or am learning how to do this. And now I need support.
I need support for the abuse I am enduring and have endured with my abuser.
I need support in how to understand and navigate through the Danish system and various authorities, while I am in this crisis state.
I need support with my children, also going through this crisis state.
IM VALID is the place.
IM VALID - Immigrant Mothers, Victims of Abuse Living in Denmark.
A group that knows what its like.
This group is composed of women that have all ´been through it´ or are ´going through it.``
From recognizing the abuse, to escaping the abuse, to reporting the abuse, to fighting for our childrens´s rights, to fighting for our own rights,
to knowing how the Danish system works.
We have all been there.

M VALID (Immigrant Mothers Victims of Abuse Living in Denmark) was founded in 2020, initially starting as a Facebook support group. Today, we are a registered NGO, managed by a small board of four women. Our organization now oversees five affiliated Facebook groups—four private and one public—with approximately 350 members combined. We are dedicated to advocating for the rights of women and children, particularly those affected by domestic violence.
`I raise up my voice - not so that I can shout, but so that those without a voice can be heard.´
