Information has been collected from various sources, namely directories, newsletters, Internet, proforma filled in by organisations, telephonic verification, letter heads, etc. However, NIPCCD does not take any responsibility for any error that may inadvertently have crept in. The address of offices of organisations, telephone numbers, e-mail IDs, activities, etc. change from time to time, hence NIPCCD may not be held liable for any incorrect information included in the Directory. Foreword Voluntary organisations play a very important role in society. They take up activities in the area of their expertise and provide support to the community in whose welfare they have interest. Social development has been ranked high on the priority list of Government programmes since Independence, and voluntary organisations have been equal partners in accelerating the pace of development. Being in close proximity to the community, voluntary organisations have done pioneering work in many areas, rendered productive services, highlighted several social problems, undertaken advocacy, and lobbied for the rights of the underprivileged. In their endeavour they have worked collaboratively with the Government, other voluntary organisations at national and international level. To showcase the work of voluntary organisations, a project was undertaken by Documentation Centre for Women and Child (DCWC), NIPCCD to bring out a series of Directories of Voluntary Organisations working in different areas namely health; nutrition; child welfare; social welfare; women welfare; destitute children, including adoption and street children; child labour; social defence, including trafficking; funding organisations; human development and education; scheduled castes/scheduled tribes; and rural development. The Directories give detailed information about organisations and their activities, including postal address, telephone, fax, website, e-mail address, and key words indicating their programmes and activities. The present document covers organisations and agencies working in the field of Women’s Empowerment. For the convenience of users, the organisations in the Directory have been arranged alphabetically state-wise, and an Index is provided to facilitate retrieval. I would like to express my gratitude to all the organisations who have extended their full cooperation and shared the relevant information. Without their support it would not have been possible to bring out this compilation. My gratitude also extends to all persons and organisations who have cooperated so willingly in providing relevant information to us. It is hoped that this document would be useful to all stakeholders working for the empowerment of vulnerable sections of society.
