“Victoria” Association for Women was established in 2002. Its operations focus on problems faced by women from various backgrounds, and with varied professional, legal and social status. Assistance for women struggling with difficulties involves: support in efforts to become independent, improvement of self-esteem, and finding way in the job market. The Association organizes courses, trainings as well as conferences and promotes new forms of employ-ment. The organization is an advocate for individuals (groups) marginalized in the community; its services include legal, psychological, family and career counselling. It cooperates and initiates partnerships with institutions administered by local governments, with trade unions, nongovernmental organizations and economic entities. The areas of activity include: aid and support for families facing difficulties, health care, protection of rights, counteracting unemployment, promotion of education, culture and ecology, operations fostering integra-tion and cooperation at the local and in-ternational level, promotion of tourism and recreation, public order and safety. Yet, due to its location in an old building with no elevator, the organization’s office is inaccessible for people with motor disabilities. The paper will discuss selected areas of the organization’s operation tak-ing into account findings acquired from official documents and freeform interviews with representatives of the board.
