With additional supplementary financial resources they are confident and are able to support their children’s education. The 3 months tailoring training course includes teaching classes, providing raw material like threads, needles, clothes, scissors, etc.
They are provided placement assistance in garment factories or support from self help groups to avail loans from financial institutions for the purchase of a tailoring machine.
