FAQ
What do we mean by “South Asian”?
The South Asian community is broadly defined as individuals with origins in Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Bhutan, Maldives, Nepal, India, Pakistan or Sri Lanka.
Can I become a member if I do not identify as female or if I am not South Asian?
Neythri is an inclusive community and does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, age, national origin, veteran status, sexual orientation, gender identity, disability, or any other basis of discrimination prohibited by law.
Please note that our member programming is designed to appeal to the South Asian women community, so certain audiences may not find our programming to be directly relevant to them. If you would like to support Neythri as an ally, please contact us here to learn more about how to get involved!
