ABOUT SNEHA
A secular, Mumbai-based non-profit organization, SNEHA believes that investing in women's health is essential to
building viable urban communities. SNEHA is 450+ people strong, innovative and progressive organization that
works on health and nutrition in urban slum pockets with women and their families. SNEHA follows the life-cycle
approach to health and nutrition, by intervening at critical junctures (adolescence, preconception, conception,
pregnancy, postnatal, infancy and toddlerhood, family planning) to ensure improved health and nutritional outcomes
for women and children living in some of Mumbai’s most vulnerable and deprived slums and in the Mumbai
Metropolitan Region (MMR) as well.
SNEHA recognizes that, in order to improve urban health standards, our initiatives must target both care seekers and
care providers. We work with communities residing in informal settlements to empower women and communities to
be catalysts of change in their own right and collaborate with existing public health systems and health care providers
to create sustainable improvements in urban health. We have currently 11 programs running across SNEHA which are
Maternal and Child Health (MCH), Public System partnerships (PSP), Empowerment, Health and Sexuality of
Adolescents (EHSAS), Prevention of Violence against Women and Children (PVWC) (e) SNEHA Centre, SNEHA Shakti,
Healthy Cities Project (HCP), Palliative Care, Livelihood Generation, Central Operations, Research and Information
Management.
