Emotional support and counsel is provided wherever required. We ensure that the slum women feel safe and secure to discuss issues they are facing (specially any form of abuse) with our teachers and volunteers.

When women are educated and empowered, they tend to marry later, have fewer children, take proper prenatal and post-natal care, invest in their children’s future and have confidence to stand up against abuse.

An empowered educated woman is able to not only improve her life but also improve the lives of her children. Swati is very proud of all the women who muster up the courage to enrol themselves in this programme to better equip themselves for their future!

Knowing English opens up many doors/avenues for the underprivileged learners. English is the language of business, entertainment, science and now most importantly, the internet! The workforce is at a great benefit if they can read and write English. Employers who offer internet application based services usually require their workers (even the lowest rung employees) to have a working knowledge of English as they will be expected to use applications, send messages, track packages etc. Empowering these learners with English skills can considerably improve their earnings and quality of life.
