Before entering the social sector, WE CAN offered shortened computer and English classes to promote learning and skill improvement. We found that despite our early successes, drug and alcohol addiction is a major problem in rural areas. Our solution was to create a Rehabilitation Centre for Drug and Alcohol Addicts in Khurigachi, P.O. Sonarpur, Kolkata, which would serve as a shelter for rehabilitation. By establishing Self Help Groups in the tribal village of Kumarpukuria, Sonarpur Block, we expressed our dedication to the people by empowering women. By training in various professions, from house pig farming and batik printing to candle making and papaya plantations, these organizations turned Kumarpukuria into a model village.
