3 The focus of this skill training initiative is on income generation activities for local women which can be accomplished from home in one s free time. The skill training/skill enhancement programmes being introduced are need-felt programmes highlighted by the target beneficiaries. These are Challenges Identified: Since the LPSS beneficiaries are all young girls or women, marketing their skills to a wider clientele to ensure a viable long-term income source poses a serious challenge. To overcome this challenge LPSS has now decided to create a market niche for this tailoring activity with outlets and clientele in government departments, police and security personnel, targeting their need for clothing. LPSS is also making inroads into the marriage market targeting bridalwear. This latter demand is a highly productive, high profit segment and though seasonal activity, serves to provide money benefits for the entire year. 2. Details of the situation of the area
