Family in Focus
This is a home-based early childhood development (ECD) initiative. The core business is reaching pre primary school children in the poorer regions of Mitchell's Plain who cannot afford the formal pre school centres. Home-visitors are trained and dispatched to provide a service in the community. Children are recruited through the process of door to door knocking. We train parents to teach the chiild since we believe that parents/caregivers are the child's first line of teaching. Children are prepared to enter the formal school system. This initiative is overseen by The Foundation for Community Workers (FCW) an is endorsed by Department of Social Development (DSD).
