Objectives of HSRLM
To reduce poverty by enabling the poor households to access gainful self-employment and skilled wage employment opportunities, resulting in appreciable improvement in their livelihood on a sustainable basis, through building strong grass root institutions of the poor. Haryana State Rural Livelihoods Mission (HSRLM)
The core belief of HSRLM is that the poor h
ave innate capabilities and a strong desire to come out of poverty. This intrinsic capability of the poor is unleashed only when they are organized into institutions which are truly owned by them, provided sufficient capacity building and hand-holding support. A sensitive support structure from national level to sub district level is required to induce such a social mobilization process. A strong institutional architecture owned by the poor, enables them to access institutional credit for various purposes, pursue livelihood based on their resources, skills and preferences, access other services and entitlements, both from the public and private sector. Approach

Enhancing and expanding existing livelihood options of the poor; building skills for the job market outside; and nurturing the self-employed and entrepreneurs.
