YMCA WOMEN'S HOSTEL

The number of working women in urban areas is steadily increasing. This hostel was established sensing the growing need for secure and comfortable accommodation for working women in the year 2003. The hostel provides safe and comfortable accommodation at an affordable cost for 64- residents. It is also a means of integration of working women with our children with hearing impaired. Today, it has proved to be an income generating venture providing partial financial support for the YMCA Service Centre for the Hearing Impaired.
