Based in Gangtok, SLIC Sikkim Unit started in 2004 with a mission to use law against discrimination of poor and marginalised sections of society. We empower the poor with access to justice through pro bono or low cost legal aid and intervention. The unit works tirelessly on issues such as children, women, farmers, labourers, the displaced, HIV+ people and those who are victims of trafficking – a critical and common issue in this border state. SLIC is only the independent organisation in the State unlike other NGOs in the State which work under the guidance of the government.
