ProGroup Foundation opens
THE ProGroup Foundation is now operational.
It is a registered non-profit human rights
trust with women and children as its core
focus. The foundation is governed by a board
of trustees.
Their Community Centre is situated in the
basement of the Lombards building - oppostie
KFC.
The following services will be available to
the public - FREE OF CHARGE.
Victim Empowerment - Victims of domestic
violence, sexual abuse, child abuse and victims
of violent crimes will be empowered to
make informed decisions regarding the situation
they find themselves in, for example:
23% of the population living in Mopani
District is HIV positive. It can therefore be a
lifesaving decision to take the medication
called PEP (Post Exposure Prophylaxis) within
72 hours after unlawful sexual penetration
(the new legal definition for rape).
Trauma Counselling - Victims of crime are
traumatised and if not acknowledged and
treated, victims can suffer from various emotional
disorders eg anxiety, depression, anger
and violence.
Court Preparation & Support - Victims of
crime have to give evidence in court if the
case was reported to the police. A daunting
prospect for most people. At the centre you
will be prepared for your day in court and a
representative from the centre will even attend
the hearing with you. For many victims this
can become a liberating experience.
Access to Justice - All citizens and victims of
crimes have rights. The centre will inform you
of your rights and help you to enforce them.
