HOW
In many rural and urban slum areas, women face significant challenges, including domestic violence, often from partners struggling with addiction. Survivors of such violence frequently bear the responsibility of supporting themselves, their children, and extended families. Widows, in particular, encounter profound societal stigma, hindering their acceptance and economic stability. Deep-seated social and cultural prejudices further marginalize these women, adversely affecting their lives and those of their children.
CARE TO ACTION addresses these issues by implementing targeted programs that provide women with the tools, knowledge, and support necessary to overcome societal barriers, achieve economic independence, and lead empowered lives.
