During lockdown in 2020 when most social support system were closed, SAKHI was completely functional to spread its reach into the community. Four out of ten women face violence from their spouses. Many of them sustain injuries and need help. Identifying the need to reach out to such women and provide them with support. SAKHI was launched in 2020 to reach out to women & support them with medical aid. Through our tell-counselling programme, they are provided mental support to overcome the trauma of physical abuse.
