The MEC for Social Development, Molebatsi Bopape (Ms) has dispatched a team of Social Workers to offer psycho-social support and relief services to families whose homes were ravaged by fire at the Msawawa human settlement in Kya Sands West of Johannesburg.
Together with the local municipality, and a network of Not-for-profit Organizations, the Department has reached out to over five hundred displaced families that have since been assisted with food aid, clothing, and various necessities.
The MEC will also visit affected families on Thursday 12 Nov 2015 at 11h00 hours to determine the extent of the intervention needed so as to mobilize other institutions to help beleaguered families regain their family lives.
