Molewa’s Plan to Boost the Poor

Social Development Minister, Edna Molewa, has pronounced that the One Stop Development Centre concept is a national programme.

The concept, which was initiated by the KwaZulu-Natal department of social development in 2008, provides a full range of social development services to children, women, elderly, youth and people with disabilities as well as families infected and affected by the scourge of HIV and AIDS.

“This concept has already had an impact in addressing the plight of the poor, particularly in deep rural areas, because clients are afforded an opportunity to obtain a full range of services from one centre, without having to travel to another area to receive other services,” states Molewa.
