This month, the Ashiyanaa Women’s Support Group This month, the Ashiyanaa Women’s Support Group came together in person for a joyful afternoon. Led by our amazing volunteers, Himaja and Rishma, the group enjoyed a vibrant Bollywood dance workshop, filling the space with energy, laughter, and connection. And then over samosas, chai, and sweets, the group shared their stories and found strength in one another.

At Ashiyanaa, we are committed to creating safe spaces where survivors can heal, rediscover joy, and stand together in resilience 💙
