The South African Social Security Agency (SASSA) in Mpumalanga is currently checking out the Fernie two Local community Hall in Mpuluzi to render services towards the community.
SASSA will be rendering expert services for instance new social grant applications, change of payment method, consumer care enquiries, plus the Social Relief of Distress (SRD) COVID-19 grant enquiries.
In a statement, the agency explained it is actually alarmed concerning the higher amount of people relying on social grants for survival.
“The purpose in the Integrated Registration Outreach Programme [ICROP] is to reach-out to the substantial amount of clients/beneficiaries to access SASSA services.
“That is mainly because of the lack of infrastructure at Fernie and there's no totally functional office committed to service the area each day. The company place made for intervention activities a read more significant influx of likely beneficiaries, that makes it tough with the office to attend to all people who go to a service point.
“In this reach-out programme, SASSA will mobilise extra methods to allow the servicing of all prospects and improve access to Social Assistance services,” the agency said.
