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 Northeastern community interested in Somalia. The organization is also formed to bring light of Somalia’s culture and ethnicity to the campus-wide audience and raise awareness about our culture, politics, religion, and general history. In addition, 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 channels of mentorship 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 Northeastern Somali Students. The third and final critical area of interest is to engage the local Somali community on relevant local Somali causes/issues.
