Sankofa African Network (SAN) is a Virginia-based nonprofit officially founded in 2020 but has provided services to the community in many capacities since 2009. We have served the growing Diaspora and Afro-Caribbean immigrants. SAN provides immigration, legal services, social integration services, legal resident assistance information, youth tutoring and counseling services and broadcast media services for the underserved populations in the Washington DC area.

SAN couples these programs with experienced and trained linguistic capacity in more than ten languages that span the African continent including Twi, Fanti, French, Haitian Creole, Spanish and more.

Driven by our desire to serve vulnerable refugees and immigrants, we act in collaboration with community partners, individuals, faith-based groups, and advocates to amplify our impact to ensure the equity of all voices and sustain our mission.

Sankofa African Network is a certified 501 (c) (3), community based non-profit organization recognized by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS).
