The South African Social Security Agency (SASSA) in Mpumalanga is currently checking out the Fernie 2 Neighborhood Hall in Mpuluzi to render solutions for the community.
SASSA is going to be rendering expert services like new social grant applications, change of payment method, consumer treatment enquiries, in addition to the Social Relief of Distress (SRD) COVID-19 grant enquiries.
In an announcement, the agency stated it can be alarmed concerning the substantial range of people relying on social grants for survival.
“The aim on the Integrated Registration Outreach Programme [ICROP] is more info to reach-out into a substantial amount of clients/beneficiaries to access SASSA services.
“That is mainly because of the lack of infrastructure at Fernie and there is no completely functional office focused on service the area on a regular basis. The assistance place made for intervention ordeals a significant influx of possible beneficiaries, that makes it tricky to the office to attend to all people who stop by a service point.
“In this reach-out programme, SASSA will mobilise extra methods to empower the servicing of all shoppers and enhance entry to Social Assistance providers,” the agency said.
