Zimpeto Child Reintegration Program

A big thank you for the continued financial support of the reintegration program. Without the program the centre would become an outdated dinosaur. Reintegration is the cog in the wheel that keeps children from stagnating in an institution. Our belief is that God created families and he hasn’t yet uncreated them; family is the best place for children to be loved and to grow. Hence we have a revolving door of children coming in being rehabilitated, supporting the family, and returning the children to their families.

Fenias

Our reintegration team have been busy the last months. A number of new children have been accepted into the centre, two of them suffering significantly from infectious diseases.

We have been able to reintegrate over 15 children back into their families and have built approximately six small houses to help these families have room to be together again.

The Team
After a total revamp in reintegration the complete new team is taking over the area with positive success.
In an attempt to pass responsibility over the national the leader of the team Juliana is learning new writing and computer skills. It is a slow process however she is keen to learn and dedicated. She has good decision making skills concerning the needs of children both entering the centre and being reunited with their families.

Reintegration is the mainstay of the centre; the visits never finish and neither do the community needs.

We have continued to accept new children into the centre, build houses to enable children to return to their families, and reintegrated children back into their homes once the family crisis has resolved.
