The objective of Women Helpline is two-fold:-

Handling calls to assist women and girls in need.

Guiding them on how to handle the situation they seek assistance with and on the next course of action, either by going to the police or by going to a relevant NGO in their location

Project 1

Project Start: March 2018

Project till: March 2025

The objective of Women Helpline is to Handle calls to assist women and girls in times of need.

When a terrible situation arises, a lot of women find themselves stranded with nowhere to turn to for help. The Trust, through the Women Helpline, acts as an intermediary and helps them get the resources they need.

Through the Women Helpline, we guide them on how to handle the situation they seek assistance with and further on how to take the next course of action, either by going to police or going to a relevant NGO in their location

By offering support in Hindi, Punjabi, English as well as local language support in certain states, Bengal, Jharkhand, Tamil Nadu, the Helpline is able to efficiently help women in their time of need.

Apart from this, the official website www.womenhelpline.in also provides a large repository of helpline numbers dedicated to women across various issues and various states for girls and women in need.

Awareness and Education

The Awareness and education Projects objective is threefold:-

Making the voice of women and girls heard and spreading awareness about their rightful place in the society

Educating women and girls on their legal rights, employment options, health matters, skill building

Providing women and girls a platform to voice their views and opinions

Project 2

Project Start: March 2018

Project till: March 2025

We focus on making the voice of women and girls heard and spreading awareness about their rightful place in the society.

Despite women empowerment being an active ideology that is been professed in the recent times, it is not always practiced. Women are unaware of their rights and this lack of awareness makes them susceptible to manipulation and mistreatment.

By educating women and girls on their legal rights, employment options, health and skill building. HRhelpdesk Trust aims to help women live a better life.

This is done so by providing women and girls a platform to voice their views and opinion, through a Facebook page with a following of 100,000 women.

We provide training and awareness on important legal rights of women, such as the Dowry Act, Domestics Violence Act, Workplace laws, IPC, Minimum Wages Act and other Employment laws, in the recent years so that women could prevent being exploited in unfair work practices and advocate for themselves.

Beyond this, we also provide awareness & Training on Maternity rights and, training and redressal on Sexual Harassment. We also spread awareness on Menstrual hygiene and feminine health issues, especially spreading awareness about, and providing free testing on, Cervical Cancer.

HRhelpdesk Trust goes above and beyond to provide counselling and guidance to women in any area they need support by partnering with a wide network to ensure that women across the country can get the help they require at their time of need.
