REACHING OUT - NETWORKING IS VITAL
One of the shop owners in Long Street has been "working"
with me for the last year, assisting me with some of the Street
Children. Continuous updates and educating has led the shop
owner to make a more worthy contribution to helping them to
solve their problems.
The boys have a good relationship with her and she makes no
decisions without consulting The Homestead. She has helped
with food parcels for families, doctors appointments, referrals,
and many kind acts that have had a major impact on some of
the boys. She went as far as attending the funeral of one
boy's mother.
We are also working together with one particular boy who she
has "adopted", and we are trying to formulate a
suitable care plan for him - he has lost both his parents
and is reluctant to go into residential care.
