Women’s Program

Women have been relegated to secondary position despite the fact that they numerically constitute about half the world population today. It’s due to lack of empowerment. Thus, empowering women is the key-device that would enable them to resurrect their status multifariously in the society and reconcile them to share virilities of the fast developing world. To empower women, Teen Challenge implements following Programs:

The aim of the literacy program is to enable them to read & write and also make them aware of their rights. We also conduct regular group and individual counseling session to help women to protect their own cause.
