|Cape Argus
THE Western Cape's fight against gender-based violence (GBV) has reached the West Coast. The Department of Social Development (DSD) has launched its 14th and 15th GBV Ambassador programmes in the Matzikama and Cederberg municipal areas.
Forty-one volunteers, 26 in Matzikama and 15 in Cederberg, will provide information about support services for survivors of abuse and domestic violence. They will also raise awareness about GBV.
For some volunteers, the work is personal. Lutzville resident Jane Skippers has assisted survivors for years.
“With the training I received from the department, I am empowered to become even more involved (in) helping my community,’ she said.
