Description & Services
| Alternate Name | Nisa Homes ; Nisa Learning, ; Nisa Mental Health |
| Description | Nisa Foundation is an organization serving marginalized and underserved women and children. Our mission isn't just to provide immediate support, shelters or counselling; it's about building futures and fostering communities where women's empowerment is a driving force. Nisa Homes provides transitional shelters for women and children, a safe haven from adversities, and offers them tools and opportunities for self-development. We also provide remote support for women who are not in our homes. When a woman finds herself in a crisis, Nisa Helpline is her lifeline. Our helpline isn't just about immediate counsel—it's a beacon of hope, trust, and responsibility. Nisa Learning offers different workshops to build healthier communities and prevent domestic violence through awareness and education. Nisa Mental Health addresses the growing need for our services, by offering a free Mental Health Counselling program for women. |
