The present research sought to explore the role of the sense of community in the empowerment of women domestic workers belonging to two organizations in Metropolitan Lima. For that reason, 8 semi-structured interviews were conducted with female domestic workers who have belonged to the organization for at least one year. Through content analysis the information was systematized and both deductive and inductive analysis were combined. Thus, it was observed that the situation of domestic workers continues to be precarious, since it develops on the basis of power relations present in society. Also, it was found that the sense of community develops as domestic workers identify with the group and establish emotional ties with other domestic workers. Besides, psychological empowerment is generated based on the personal changes and resources that domestic workers develop as they participate in the organization. Finally, the sense of community reinforces psychological empowerment, because the relationships that occur within organizations allow the recognition of common values and needs that guide the organization and its members to change.
