Health Programme
 
School Project
 
 
We are poised to increase and make more effective the outreach of our empowerment programmes by working with schools where we know young people of the target age congregate in larger numbers and scale. By and large this programme focuses on the following aspects:
 
  • Providing psychosocial support (PSS) to learners, educators, and the community. We are supported by the SADC framework on minimum package of services and PSS which places great emphasis on the mainstreaming of Psychosocial Support in all structures that provide services to children and young people.
  • Focusing on clear health goals – the prevention of HIV and AIDS.
  • Focusing narrolwy on specific behaviours leading to these healthj goals (e.g. abstaining from sex or suing condoms and other contraceptives).
  • Addresssing multiple psychosocial risks and protective factors affecting sexual behaviours (e.g. knowledge, perceived risks, valuers, attitudes, perceived norms and self efficacy).

Here, we our goal is to increase support in primary health care information and basic treatment and services to young people at schools and in communities.
This component provides comprehensive information to young people to promote peer to peer learning and exchange of information, in areas of HIV Counselling and Testing (HCT).
 

As such we promote the positive impact, knowledge and attitudes towards healthy matters which include, but are not limited to, HIV and AIDS, screening of malaria and TB, medical check-ups for school going youth in particular and out of school youth and girls, sexual behaviours.

  "A social responsibility should not just be seen as the companies take on costs. On the contrary, each company could find good projects, which link to its own operations. It strengthens the brand, giving proud employees and increase the confidence of customers "
