• Overnight shelter- 125 beds

Page 10: Empowering people holistically to live independent, sustainable and meaningful lives

CONTINUE• Managed Care: Othandweni- 40 Ekuthuleni- 100 Linatex- 136 • Offered support service to clients coming

off the streets, who are part of a skills development programme.

Page 11: Empowering people holistically to live independent, sustainable and meaningful lives

CONTINUE

• Transitional housing- 140 beds, where clients were part of a developmental programme or working but exiting the programme within 12 months

Page 12: Empowering people holistically to live independent, sustainable and meaningful lives

Challenge with EXIT after 12 months

• The challenge was about the clients that were to exit

Page 13: Empowering people holistically to live independent, sustainable and meaningful lives

CONTINUE

• MES saw the need to expand their housing solution to include products that would address the need for affordable accommodation to clients earning a combined family income of less than R3500/ month

Page 14: Empowering people holistically to live independent, sustainable and meaningful lives

CONTINUE

• Due to the scope and financial risk that a new housing organisation would bring to MES, the MES Board decided to structure MHA outside the current MES structure into a separate Not for Profit Company.

STRATEGY

MES’s sustainable exit strategy was the establishment of Madulammoho Housing Association (MHA)

Page 16: Empowering people holistically to live independent, sustainable and meaningful lives

• A formal SLA was established

IMPILO’S HISTORY• In 1997 MES opened a container clinic, a

small sickbay.• A mobile clinic was added to the services

that lead to community based health care.

• In March 2003 the Department of Housing provided funds to purchase an 82 bed facility in Jeppestown.

• MES Impilo became a separate programme of MES and the MES Impilo Health Programme started.
