1st Home Visit on date 06-05-2025 
 Brief Background: Pooja is one of the beneficiaries from Faridabad Prison. She was incarcerated under IPC 375 and served three years from 2023 to 2025. During her time in prison, Pooja actively participated in the skill center programs, where she learned and enhanced her skills in stitching and beauty parlour work. She has a strong foundation in stitching, a skill she acquired at an early age, and even taught others while in prison.   
 Currently, Pooja lives with her mother, brother and two children. Her daughter is studying in class 6, while her son is in class 10. The family’s primary source of income is her brother Rohit, who works as an electrician and earns around ₹15000-₹16000 per month. However, this income is insufficient to meet the needs of the household.   
 Pooja shared that she is facing significant financial challenges. She occasionally helps her brother with his work as she also possesses skills in electrical work, a trade she learned from her father at a young age. She mentioned that whenever the electricity in the barracks would malfunction, she used to repair it. Despite her abilities, Pooja is struggling to find stable employment. She expressed a strong desire to restart her stitching work to support her children’s education and personal needs, as well as to contribute to the family’s finances.   
 Pooja is a highly dedicated and talented individual who is willing to take on any work to improve her family’s situation. She is seeking assistance from the organization to help her set up her stitching work, as she currently lacks the financial means to do so.   
 Overall Observation: The family’s reside in a two-room setup—one room on the third floor and another on the fourth floor—with a kitchen and bathroom. The house is owned by the family but is being paid for in installments as part of a security arrangement.   
 There is no support from Pooja’s late husband’s family or other relatives, which has added to her struggles. Despite actively looking for a job, Pooja has been unable to secure one and is determined to establish her own stitching business to become self-reliant.   
 Recommendations: Pooja’s resilience and determination make her a deserving candidate for support. Providing her with financial assistance or resources to set up her stitching business could significantly improve her family’s situation. Additionally, offering guidance or training programs to further enhance her skills could open up more opportunities for her.
