During the youth month, the Inside-out team attended a meeting with the emailaprisoner initiative, represented by founder and development manager, Derek Jonas accompanied by Julie Rigby-Brink. The aim of the meeting was to collaborate with Unisa’s Inside-out team in an effort to introduce the emailaprisoner initiative to the Department of Correctional Services.
Read more about this initiative in the attached report.
On the 30th of May, Inside-out attended the Candle Light Day at the Kgosi Mampuru Correctional Centre in Pretoria, to show support and advocate for those who have been affected by the global HIV/AIDS epidemic.
Those attending remembered the friends and families lost, and the event endeavoured to raise awareness about HIV through past reflections and preparedness for the future, with a focus on education to make a difference.
Thank you to Bongi Mdakane, for fulfilling the duty of the programme director, and to Ms Doris Mojapelo for including Inside-out at the event. To see more, visit our Facebook Page.
