Snippet of a quote from a participant:

“I can now feed my family while working for the community”

 

One memorable statement relevant to the SIP: (examples)

The Sisterhood Advocates (SHA) project interfaces with survivors of gender-based violence who often not informed about where to go when they experience violence. SHAs accompany survivors of GBV to lay charges with local SAPS, apply for protection/maintenance order as well as referring them to local domestic violence shelters. The total number of women assisted to date is 19 666.
