Many women in India suffer extreme cruelty at the hands of their families. There is a need to provide shelter for homeless women who receive no support. El Shaddai accommodates a safe house for homeless women in difficult circumstances.
67% of the women are homeless and are living on the streets. They are often denied even basic rights such as food, health-care and are thrown out of their homes by their families. El Shaddai provides shelter, meals, skill development programs and healthcare for the homeless.
House of Hope offers a safe, hygienic and comfortable home for women in Mapusa, Goa. The women are comforted with mental support and counselling services to build their future returning back to their normal life. We aim to also provide a loving, peaceful and safe environment for women in crisis.
Our project will provide women with a caring and congenial environment. With training and empowerment, these women can start to build new lives for themselves and their children and get back to normal life. Being a survivor, she will have the capacity to support people that are dependent on her. She will choose to be free from abuse and stand on her own feet after hardships in life allowing her to be reintegrated with the society.
