Women Empowerment

Women empowerment has been the core area of work where our organization has been focussing since a long time. We found women have greater role in their family and in the society to pursue the positive change to change their social and economic status . Women have been organised, sensitised and aware towards their social, economic status, atrocities on women, education for their children, health etc by the organization regularly to change in the status of women. Over the period the organization found significant change in the life of the women in the area. Women have been organised into SHG groups to come out from the clutches of money lenders and have been linked to financial institutions, Banks and from different Govt. Schemes to support their livelihood. The women recognizes that the economic independence through their small saving in SHGs and linkages in Banks have improved their social and economic status and are able to support their family in education and for improved health services.
