The South African Social Security Agency (SASSA) in Mpumalanga is currently going to the Fernie 2 Local community Hall in Mpuluzi to render solutions on the community.
SASSA might be rendering expert services such as new social grant applications, change of payment method, consumer care enquiries, as well as the Social Relief of Distress (SRD) COVID-19 grant enquiries.
In a statement, the agency claimed it can be alarmed regarding the higher quantity of people depending on social grants for survival.
“The intention on the Integrated Registration Outreach Programme [ICROP] is to reach-out to some superior range of clients/beneficiaries to access SASSA services.
“This is due to the lack of infrastructure at Fernie and there is no fully functional office committed to service the area every day. The assistance stage established for intervention experiences a substantial inflow more info of potential beneficiaries, which makes it hard for the office to attend to all people who go to a service point.
“In this reach-out programme, SASSA will mobilise far more methods to help the servicing of all clients and enhance use of Social Assistance products and services,” the agency said.
