SURVIVOR SUPPORT

As the name suggests, this programme was designed with a sole motive of reaching out to survivors of SGBV and helping them to access justice and other comprehensive care and support services that can help them regain their confidence, dignity, healing and productivity.

The programme activities are designed and implemented in a manner that directly impacts on people’s capacity to recover, restore their dignity and also help others to overcome similar challenges.
