Our Focus is on two specific programmes:

Youth As Facilitative Leaders (YFL)

Youth as Facilitative Leaders (YFL) Programme is the organisation’s major programme that has been working with young people from different areas of Johannesburg since 2002. The overall goal of the programme is “To develop young people as facilitative leaders to mobilize and influence positive social change in their schools and communities.” Young people are taken through a process of training in peer education, facilitation, youth development and life-skills.

Orphans/Vulnerable Children (Services and support for families of orphaned and vulnerable children)

Providing focused, multi-level support for families on the brink increases their capacity to properly nurture orphaned and vulnerable children.

Institute of Cultural Affairs South Africa works to positively change the destiny of children affected by the AIDS pandemic. Our approach is the holistic support of families and the community so that they are empowered to nurture their children into productive adulthood. We know that you cannot help a child without helping the family. We believe in acting in the best interests of the child, and therefore deliver services that enable community-based care of orphaned and vulnerable children.
