Interview with Khulisa Social Solutions
Khulisa Social Solutions
Backchat was joined by the
amazing Mandy from Khulisa Social Solutions (KSS) which is a multi-award
winning, Non-Profit Organisation (NPO). Its aim is to empower vulnerable
children, youth, those who are marginalized, and the community at large to
unlock their full potential in order to develop resilient pathways and skills
that lead to a sustainable future.
Mandy shared with us why they
mainly focus on teenage mother or teenagers in general. She believes that they
are the ones that are not recognised enough.
Khulisa’s initial focus was to
implement South Africa’s first official rehabilitation programme,
targeted at young offenders. They then expanded their activities,
primarily through peace-making and restorative approaches, to holistic
community development tackling a wide range of issues countering social and
economic inclusion
Mandy also stated that one of
the main things they lack is funds because they are a NPO, that of course has
its struggles and challenges but they always remain hopeful for the future.
