About Us
Lifeconnect Nagaland is a Christian Organization that works with marginalized and vulnerable women to empower them towards spiritual, social, economic and emotional well-being. Our efforts are focused to ensure marginalized women live a life of dignity and help them to the fullest potential that God has given them.
Focus
Our focus area is a community where we observe a significant amount of injustice towards women and children due to alcoholic husbands. The people we work with are economically poor, with limited resources, socially vulnerable, and spiritually marginalized. There are also numerous alcohol-related businesses operating in this area, leading to injustices faced by families and the new generation growing up..
Recent Years
In recent years, LifeConnect has started reaching out to children as well as men-folk. Since most of the domestic violence stems from alcoholic husbands, we have plans of extending our ministry even to men which we believe will deal with the core issue of injustice to vulnerable women and children at the same time provide a safe space to spiritually rehabilitate menfolk as well.
