Women’s Counseling Center’ is the project which provides free counseling, referral, and rehabilitative services to female victims who are in mortal danger in their family or society due to marital discord or maladjustment. The aim of this project is to empower women and encourage them to emerge as confident individuals that contribute financially to their households. We have found that prioritizing the capacity building of women-led efforts relating to education and income generation can be augmented by introducing women to various schemes.
In Washim, counseling, referral, and rehabilitative services are currently being provided free of charge to female victims. Also in Nagthana, UVS has vocational training, a Women’s Counseling Center, skill development programs, health checkup camps, and self-help group guidance programs to help bring women’s issues into the mainstream.
