Abstract
This paper presents some of the significant events and issues of the Indian subcontinent that gave rise to the evolution of social welfare education and practice and also the establishment of shelter homes later in Pakistan after independence in 1947. It is important to know the history of social welfare and shelter homes in Pakistan to understand how private and public entities took up the challenge of working on the issue of violence against women. The challenges and problems faced by women shelter home residents in the Punjab province of Pakistan are also examined.
