The budget from Social Development is out now, so funded organizations are waiting to receive their money. Social Development invited all co-ordinators of HBC groups to explain about their new structure and about their planning of frame work for caregivers who are in the organization.
Social Development will only fund for 10 caregivers per group. If there are over 10 caregivers, that group must find funds for those extra people elsewhere. They are trying to mesh with what the Department of Health does.
Philisa, Mdumbi and Siyakhula are starting to visit churches to do awareness campaigns about human trafficking. The churches and schools need to be more aware about this issue, especially with the world cup coming up and all the people coming and going for that.
The carers who went to the Temba training are called counsellors. There are 4 in each group. They are doing counselling in churches and in schools. Temba has made an agreement with the 3 groups so every time these counsellors can attend the conferences for free.
On the 27th of May there will be a big conference in Mthatha. The 3 HBC groups are invited, church leaders, Department of Education, Thembelitsha Rehabilitation, Department of Social Development, Family Advocate, Safety and Laison, doctors and traditional healers, Department of Correctional Services and the police were all also invited.
