Club - Somali Students Association

NEUSSA is a segway between institutions to promote uplift and unite the Boston Somali community and work to foster connections between Somali college students.

Our goal is to serve Northeastern University’s Somali students and those in the NEU community who are interested in Somalia. The organization is also formed to bring to light Somalia’s culture and ethnicity to the campus-wide audience and raise awareness about Somalia’s culture, politics, religion, and general history.

In addition to this better campus-wide representation, NEUSSA is also formed to connect Somali college Students and create a forum to interact about the current and future state of Somalia. NEUSSA intends to endeavor in critical areas to this aforementioned mission: The first area is mentorship, we intend to establish a mentorship program for current and future NEU Somali students, and would also like to play a role as a motivator and role model for Boston Area Students (Middle & High Schools). The second area of critical interest is academic enrichment for NEU Somali Students and the at-large NEU Community about Somalia by hosting discussions and forums on issues relating to Somalia and the third and final critical area of interest is to engage the local Somali community on relevant Local Somali causes/issues.
