The organisation has its roots in the response to HIV and AIDS prevention and intervention among the women and girls in low income areas of Nairobi. The initiative identified and mitigates the need of women and girls who suffer discrimination, marginalisation and stigmatisation for different reasons. They live in vicious cycle of poverty being the main cause of indecent work therefore the organisation provides empowerment, socio-economic support, psychotherapy, and formation of support groups.
