AWAG has over the years raised awareness of poor urban and rural women to their individuality and taught them that social justice is their right, and that they need not succumb to violence and end their lives. A woman suffering from domestic violence seeks assistance at AWAG's Counselling Centres. She is provided support to be composed enough to think of her future. She can then, opt for social reconciliation or legal solution to her problem. In the meantime in order to reorganize her life, the Training centre of AWAG offers her training and later, provides her work to do. The income she earns helps her find her moorings in society and she comfortably slips back into her surroundings, asserting herself as an individual.
Each woman has to make transition from ordinary domestic sewing machine to the one fitted with electric motor. This poses a challenge for the women who struggle to meet the requirements. Care and precision has to be maintained that the thread ought not to break in between, same distance be maintained between lines of stitching so that they appear parallel to each other and every product should look flawless. This means that they have to work very hard.
In order to meet the rising demand, the production centre of AWAG offers high quality and continued training to women to develop their skills and become competent to deliver high quality finished products, thereby increasing their scope of generating income.
