Since the establishment of the abused women’s shelter in 1999, and as most of the abused women lack financial and economic independence, and because of the absence of social and economic protection for this group, we have decided to get assisted by some programs which are capable of rehabilitating women residing in the Shelter or women who get benefit from the legal, social, and psychological counseling program.

These programs aim to:

• Train women to acquire a profession that qualifies them to access the labor market.
• Integrate abused women through training programs.
• Get a financial return.

Programs designed for this purpose:

1-      The Productive Kitchen:

• Offering food for the residing women.
