Our Team
Dignity Period's global team includes program staff and partners in Ethiopia. Our administration and board of directors are based in St. Louis.
Clashes between federal and regional troops in the northern Ethiopia have forced us to pause our work in Tigray. Read a statement about the conflict in the latest edition of our e-newsletter.
