Objectives of CGWWA

CGWWA aims at empowering every Tatrakshika through varied educational schemes, giving ample opportunities for self improvement, self expression and also self employment, thereby helping her to evolve into a well rounded confident and responsible person. It also aims at keeping the wives of all personel in touch with each other and encouraging a cooperative spirit amongst its members for mutual benefit.
From an organisation originally set up for the welfare of only Coast Guard families, Tatrakshika has in recent years, extended its arms beyond the service to encompass a wider circle of people, particularly the families of civilians in the service.
CGWWA also help women, children and senior citizens from underprivileged sections of society on a regular basis, and in times of natural disasters mobilises relief material for the affected or displaced victims.
CGWWA seeks to make the Coast Guard community a healthy and happy family. It arranges social development programmes so that the members coming from diverse backgrounds, speaking different languages can interact informally and feel comfortable with each other.
Tatrakshika's vision is to promote total development of women in the CG family by providing wide array of opportunities.
CGWWA seeks to transform women as independent and strong individuals, through realization of their true potential. The family has always been the soul of the Armed Forces. Strong families, guided by capable women, not only provide the right thrust and impetus to the service, but also help make a better society.
CGWWA being an voluntary organisation follows an open door policy for active participation by its members, at any stage and in any of its programmes. The association provides a platform for those who care to work for the betterment of the community at large.
