Amma Services and Development Society (ASDS) is a non-profit organization established in the year 2020. We at ASDS believe that women's empowerment is a critical aspect of achieving gender equality. It includes increasing a woman's sense of self-worth, her decision-making power, her access to opportunities and resources, her power and control over her own life inside and outside the home, and her ability to effect change. We aim to boost women's status through literacy, education, training, and awareness creation.
Our aim is to work with women sex workers, single women, widowed women, migrant women workers and raise awareness about anti-trafficking (children), health issues related to HIV, AIDS and provide them with regular medicine and nutrition.
With the help of the National Network of Sex Workers (NNSW) and WINS NGO, we network with these women to raise awareness of sexually transmitted infections (STIs) and comprehensive Sexual and Reproductive Health (SRH) prevention interventions
An integrated approach to build a equitable and empowered society
OUR VISION
To build a community of women who can get insight and knowledge into the key area of their lives
OUR MISSION
To empower women in social and economic dimensions through financial inclusion
Investing in women's empowerment sets a direct path toward gender equality, poverty eradication, health, and inclusive economic growth. Women make enormous contributions to economies, whether in businesses, on farms, as entrepreneurs or employees, or by doing unpaid care work at home. We at ASDS help women in the Kanchikerla Mandal to form self-help groups, create awareness about health, distribute grocery kits, etc., among others.
Female Sex Workers (FSWs) are predisposed to a broad range of social, sexual, and reproductive health problems such as sexually transmitted infections (STIs)/HIV, unintended pregnancy, violence, sexual exploitation, stigma, and discrimination. Female sex workers have an unmet need for contraceptives and require comprehensive Sexual and Reproductive Health (SRH) prevention interventions.
All these vulnerabilities, coupled with women’s low status, repeated human rights violations, poor educational or economic opportunities and poor attitudes towards sex and sexuality, poor knowledge and access to modern contraceptive methods predispose women, and particularly FSWs, to a host of other STI risk factors.
It is the small change that makes the biggest impact.
