Short Stay Home at Rayagada, Odisha

Women have always discriminated in the society. Domestic violence and atrocities have been perpetrated against defenseless women despite the fact that they have proven best sometimes. So many laws are enacted in our country for the protection of women.

Due to these reasons, SNEH has opened a Short Stay Home at Rayagada under the financial assistance of Central Social Welfare Board, New Delhi to give shelter to the victimised women.

SNEH’s objective is to bring reconciliation, so that the distressed woman can return to her home. Free counseling is given to the woman, her husband, parents, in-laws and other members of her family who are involved. Other supportive and referral measures are rendered if required. The purpose of it is to bring harmony in family life so that amicable living in the family is restored. The woman can rebuild her shattered life with the compassion of others. Occupational therapy is given to the inmates in the home with the hope that she can be self-sufficient and confident in every way and empowered to make her way in life independently and with dignity and self respect after leaving the Home. Free medical treatment is provided so that she can maintain her mental and physical health.  

Activities:


  • Vocational Training on tailoring, embroidery knitting, phenyle making, small business, fancy saree making
  • Formal education for inmates
  • Individual and Group Therapy
  • Recreational activities like outings, picnic, film show, games etc.
  • Celebrations and observations of days
  • Awareness meetings
  • Participation in district level programmes
