As already reported, two of the Social Justice & Advocacy Desk’s In-Reach Students have been involved in forming a drama group within their community of Khayelitsha. The purpose of this group is to continually take multiple youth off the streets of the township of Khayelitsha in order to keep them occupied, encourage them to remain in school, as well as keep them away from gangs who often force youth to join their ranks. Over the years the drama group has served as a great support for the youth who have encouraged and supported each other to work hard in school in order to find employment and contribute towards their communities.
