BATIS Center for Women
BATIS is a service institution which caters to the needs of distressed overseas Filipina workers. It was founded in November 1988, as a result of networking between some staff of the division of family ministries of the National Council of Churches in the Philippines (NCCP) and the House of Emergency of Love and Peace (HELP). Its aim is to make women overseas workers aware to their rights and responsibilities through publication of relevant materials; launching of education courses, training, seminars and symposia.
