Educators at PGVS, help these women become better readers and writers, build self-confidence to express themselves, develop their skills in art works, tailoring, hairdressing, facial treatment, manicure, pedicure and secretarial work. Leadership behaviors are encouraged where students are given opportunity to take responsibilities. This helps them acquire knowledge on how to run a business, how to manage their homes, personal hygiene, and how to become independent women. The empowerment program enables these women to become self-supportive, creative and gives them the skills to acquire the knowledge needed to face the challenges of life.
