Because our clients are very valuable and form an integral part of us and their well being is our concern, we are very passionate about supporting them.

Same-gender services: This is quite valuable because less privileged and deprived girls and women are far more vulnerable than men and form the core of their families.  It creates ‘a same-gender environment’, which allows women to feel more comfortable and deal with self-esteem issues which are very typical in deprived, abusive and dependent situations.
