4 years on the streets
Mr. Zee (name changed) was referred to the Haven by the Claremont Improvement Districts, Security Officer on 19/10/2020.
He had been living on the streets for 4 years. During a one on one session with the Social Worker he disclosed that he had family in Port Elizabeth. He expressed the desire to be reunited with his family in PE and this goal was incorporated in his personal development plan (PDP).
He participated in the programs offered and through the family outreach and support programs he was soon ready to be reunited. His family was also.
On 16/12/2020 the client was picked up by the Taxi to transport him to Port Elizbeth. The next morning his family called to inform us that he had arrived home safely. The Social Auxiliary Worker will be in contact with him should he need any assistance.
