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.

Sole dependency on agriculture is proving ineffective to farmers. Moreover, a helping hand from women is in demand to tackle the existing farming situation. In continuation from previous years, we have provided vocational training to rural women to start their own ventures and contribute to the family. We offered courses like beauty parlor, bakery production, sewing cloths, lather bag manufacturing, and more to needy Below Powerty Line (BPL) women.
Apart from their need in the agricultural sector, women from Self Help Group (SHG) play a vital role to improve the efficiency of credit systems, to channel financial conclusions, to mobilize the resources, to promote savings and banking habits, to improve the living condition of the poor and to empower their friends and families. With the assistance of the central government’s Swarna Jayanti Gram Swarojgar Yojna we have done a remarkable task in SHG formation and it is still going with same enthusiasm.
In addition, through Vidarbha InfoTech, we are providing nonprofit certificate courses such as the Maharashtra State Certificate in Information Technology (MS-CIT) to needy beneficiaries. We also undertaken courses in Entrepreneurship Development, MITCON, etc. for rural beneficiaries.
