Social Protection:
RDMM works towards reducing the financial vulnerability of FSW community by generating awareness and facilitating their access to social entitlements and welfare schemes. Our team has enabled many FSWs to avail ration card, voter ID, PAN card, Aadhar card, etc. and facilitated the process of accessing relevant welfare schemes such as PM Jeevan Jyoti Bima Yojana (PMJJBY), Sukanya Samriddhi Yojana, etc.
RDMM’s effort on social protection are being supported by Global Fund’s COVID-19 Response Mechanism (GFATM C-19 RM) grant through Swathi Mahila Sangh, Telangana State AIDS Control Prevention Society (TGSACS) and earlier, by BMGF’s Avahan III initiative, in collaboration with SHC.
Livelihood & Social Enterprise:
In collaboration with Swasti Health Catalyst and with support from Social Venture Partners – Hyderabad Chapter, our team conducted skill building and entrepreneurship trainings for FSWs and facilitated their access to govt. schemes such as PM Mudra Yojana Scheme (PMMYS).
543 FSWs availed loans in the range of 20k to 1 lakh and started a small business such as vegetable shop, tailoring, etc. RDMM continues to provide mentorship and address the challenges faced, working towards sustainability of the enterprises.
