The South African Social Security Agency (SASSA) in Mpumalanga is currently visiting the Fernie 2 Neighborhood Hall in Mpuluzi to render expert services into the community.
SASSA might be rendering providers including new social grant applications, change of payment method, client treatment enquiries, as well as the Social Relief of Distress (SRD) COVID-19 grant enquiries.
In a press release, the agency mentioned it's alarmed in regards to the higher range of people counting on social grants for survival.
“The purpose in the Integrated Registration Outreach Programme [ICROP] is to reach-out to a substantial number of clients/beneficiaries to access read more SASSA services.
“That is a result of the lack of infrastructure at Fernie and there's no totally functional office committed to service the area regularly. The services place established for intervention experiences a higher influx of prospective beneficiaries, which makes it hard for that Workplace to attend to all people who take a look at a service point.
“In this reach-out programme, SASSA will mobilise extra means to help the servicing of all prospects and maximize usage of Social Assistance services,” the agency said.
