Our Vision
The decade perspective of the State Social Welfare Board encompasses the following objectives
The Board must
• Act as a change maker with a humanitarian approach by reinforcing the spirit of voluntarism.
• Create an enabling mechanism to facilitate networking of committed social workers for the empowerment of women and children.
• Develop a cadre of sensitive professionals with a gender centric vision committed to equity, justice and social change.
• Recommend gender specific policy initiatives to meet the new challenges for women and children in emerging areas.
• Strengthen voluntary organisations and expand coverage of ‘engendered’ schemes in areas where they have not yet reached.
• Initiate and strengthen its monitoring role to act as social audit and guide for the voluntary sector so as to access Government funds as resource.
• Generate awareness about the challenges of a society in transition where negative use of technologies and practices are impacting on the wellbeing of women and children.
