An introductory meeting of Houswives Group and other women

A meeting is scheduled for the ladies of Defence ,Karachi to introduce them to the group for crises support. As scheduled a presentation by WAR ( war against rape) an organisation working in the field of sexual assault victim's help for the last twenty or so years will be made. The idea is to get the feedback and suggestions from the participants as to how they see the issue of violence against women, spread awareness, create inroads in community so that they find safe places or a listening ear and seek help. The dilemma is that people inspite of having financial means in upper middle and rich populations are not addressing these issues and are not seeking help. These topics bieng taboo many women and children, and their families suffer silently. As our support group aims to provide help and information this first meeting is only the begining. A large residents association has already published our objectives in their current newsletter.
