Vocational Training for Poor Women

Aakansha Seva Sadan (ASS); Muzaffarpur, Bihar

Contact: Ms. Bandana Sharma

January 2014 – March 2018

Budget: Total, Rs.7,40,150

ASS’s project provided 6-month training programs in embroidery, tailoring, and beautician work to 270 poor women and adolescent girls (2 groups of 15 women per year for each skill) in the period 2014-17.  As the tailoring and beautician programs were particularly successful, we extended them for a year to train 30 additional women in these skills.  The beneficiaries are now largely self-employed in their chosen occupations.
