**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 a 450+ person strong, innovative and progressive

organisation 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 recognises 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 IM.
