Minister Zulu will address the media regarding R350 COVID-19 social relief of distress awards and child support top-up.
Underserved and vulnerable populations rely on social development initiatives to live and improve their quality of life. October has been designated as a month for social development.
The Minister of Social Development, Ms. Lindiwe Zulu, will give an update on Monday, October 10. She will discuss the R350 COVID-19 Social Relief of Distress (SRD) grant and the Child Support Grant (CSG) Top-Up, as well as the department’s efforts to ensure that the country is aware of the services it provides.
The Minister will make the most of the chance to emphasize the requirements and eligibility for South Africans to access the CSG, which is not a replacement for the standard Child Support Grant for orphans in the care of relatives but rather an addition to it. The Minister will utilize this opportunity to emphasize the topic of this year’s Social Development Month, which is “United in the Fight Against Poverty and Other Social Ills.” A status report on the R350 COVID-19 Social Relief of Distress grant will also be supplied to her.
The Department of Social Development will host a seminar on Sexual and Reproductive Health Justice (SRJ) on the same day. The goal of this lecture is to arm the vulnerable and disenfranchised with the information and skills they need to make responsible decisions about their bodies, sexuality, and reproduction.
The Nairobi Summit’s highlights are covered in depth in the ICPD25 Report (2021), “No Exceptions, No Exclusions: Realizing Sexual and Reproductive Health, Rights, and Justice for All,” which will also be discussed during the seminar.
