Founder Abdul Jaleel Jabodien on the Women's Needs Organisation

Loading player...
Amid an indecent coupling of ongoing Gender-Based violence and inadequate access to services plaguing the lives and homes of South Africans, a new organisation seeks to provide relief to women in need. The newly launched Women's Needs Organisation aims to make Cape Town the hub of aid for those affected by abuse. A multi-facetted approach will make use of professional services to cater to womens' physical, emotional and legal concerns and enable the creation of a sustainable future.

Founder Abdul Jaleel Jabodien joined Real Talk to unpack this vital resource. Visit the links below to find out more about the organisation or contact 081 883 2162 or email womenneedsorg@gmail.com. Listen to the full interview below:
