community development

Standardised prevention programmes are offered to reduce and prevent the harmful effects of substances on children, adolescents, youth and adults in all communities where SANCA services are accessible.

​

These SANCA prevention programmes include:

  - ‘Boogie Woogie’ puppet shows for 4 to 9 year olds.

  - ‘Shatterproof’ puppet shows for 10 to 14 year olds.

  - ‘Life is A Choice’ for adolescents (Peer Education Programme).

  - ‘Kemoja’ for all school learners and out-of-school youth.

  - ‘Can You Hear Me Now’ for the prevention of FASD targeted at pregnant women.

 

Community development programmes are implemented in rural, semi-urban and rural areas using the CADCA (Community anti-drug coalitions of America) strategy and 7 coalitions have been successfully established.

​

The ‘Never Give Up’ programme for community development workers and volunteers emphasises building resilience in communities to strengthening partnerships and the sharing of community resources. 

​

The ‘Stand Up’ programme is tailor-made for both emerging organisations and SANCA members and focuses on internal operational processes and systems.

​

The governance training programme is offered to these organisations to ensure good management practices are implemented for accountability and sustainability of the organisations.
