Migrants Welfare

Migrants workers working hard
Our work with migrants is through the Migrant Assistance and Information Network (MAIN), which is the outcome of the felt-need for a concerted, collective and innovative response to reach out to the distressed migrant workers across India.

Being essentially a partnership model, MAIN works in collaboration with individuals, NGOs/CSOs/CBOs, academic and research institutions, etc. at various levels. We work closely with state governments by developing a replicable and sustainable model of Accompanying, Serving and Advocating for the cause of distressed migrants.

MAIN has established a central helpline system with a toll-free helpline number 1800-891-2995, wherein distress migrants/his or her family member/close associate can call to seek critical assistance/information.

Impact Stories

In the recent Delhi floods, the Migrant Assistance and Information Network (MAIN) teamed up with IGSSS to provide necessary assistance to migrant labourers and families in Kisan Colony.

When the floodwaters struck, our partner MAIN sprang into action, reaching out to the affected families and assessing the situation. MAIN was able to swiftly provide relief to 60 families, by ensuring that they received essential supplies and clean drinking water.

These efforts bridged the gaps left by other agencies, guaranteeing that no one was left behind in their time of need. This collaborative approach embodies our commitment to aiding disaster-stricken communities. We are grateful to partners like IGSSS for their unwavering support.
