The women empowerment component of the Mission Convergence is being implemented through the Gender Resource Centres, that functions in the community and are the operational arms of the Mission. The Woman Empowerment Component is aimed at holistic development of the marginalized vulnerable women through interventions in the areas including Literacy, Health and Livelihood. The GRC program is a first and remarkable step for Women to be empowered in their health decisions, communication skills, and self-awareness. Investing in girls is exactly the vehicle needed for underprivileged communities in order to eradicate intergenerational poverty and under nutrition. Investing in women is not only important in view of women's rights to empowerment, but also a wise economic decision. By including females in economic development, it is likely that India will see increased economic growth and success in near future. Under a well structured programme, the GRCs provide Non-Formal Education, Vocational Training and Skill Development, Health and Nutrition through camps and clinics and are also instilling virtues of thrift and micro credit through formation of Self-Help Groups (SHGs).
