The South African Social Security Agency (SASSA) in Mpumalanga is currently visiting the Fernie 2 Local community Hall in Mpuluzi to render services to the community.
SASSA is going to be rendering providers like new social grant applications, change of payment method, client care enquiries, together with the Social Relief of Distress (SRD) COVID-19 grant enquiries.
In an announcement, the agency said it truly is alarmed with regard to the substantial number of people counting on social grants for survival.
“The aim on the Integrated Registration Outreach Programme [ICROP] is to reach-out to a substantial range of clients/beneficiaries to access SASSA services.
“That is because of the lack of infrastructure at Fernie and there is no thoroughly functional office devoted to service the area every day. The provider place established for intervention experiences a high influx read more of possible beneficiaries, which makes it tough for your office to attend to all people who go to a service point.
“In this reach-out programme, SASSA will mobilise a lot more sources to allow the servicing of all consumers and boost entry to Social Assistance providers,” the agency said.
