Vocational Training & Women Empowerment

RSS in its project areas in Delhi and Bihar has realized the need to make the young women financially self-reliant. To cater the needs of the young women who are already enrolled in the RSS women empowerment programme RSS started vocational course on stitching and embroidery in 2009.

The women who are illiterate or having minimum qualification get an opportunity to earn livelihood through cutting and tailoring and also through Handicraft Training. For such women, tailoring provides an easiest way to generate an income of their own. Through RSS training centres, we intend to make women confident and self-reliant. By learning this skill, the women are able to continue their work even from home by allowing themselves to take care of their children also.

Financial independence and self-reliance contribute to women empowerment and help them reinforce their social status. Through this course the women learn the art of embroidery, designing cloths stitching and handicraft Items. Depending upon their interest they can learn basic teaching and go for advance courses on the same. RSS provide theoretical as well as practical classes to the beneficiaries.

RSS also conduct surveys in the urban slums to encourage women, girls and their parents to pursue their training in order to secure a source of income.
