About the organization

Empowering women through skill development, legal literacy, and financial inclusion programs.

Our vision

An India where every woman lives with dignity, financial independence, and freedom from discrimination and violence.

Our story

Disha was born in 2012 from a legal aid camp organized by women lawyers for survivors of domestic violence. Recognizing that legal help alone wasn't enough, founders expanded to holistic empowerment — today we support 25,000 women annually through 6 program verticals.
