A healthy family system and home environment is at the heart of the optimal development of every child. Therefore, our Social Service Interventions are central to every Tshepong Program in order to give support and encouragement to families, while ensuring that their basic needs are met.

Social Services include:

  • Individual and Family support and interventions - Home visits, mediation & counselling.
