My first Week in Johannesburg "Hillbrow"

19/1/2013

Week 1 11-15
My week with Transform was a week of introductions and getting to know Johannesburg in particular Hillbrow. On monday the 11th of february me togther with  Nigel, Becky and Trish covered the agenda for the whole of Transform and our work as Intern social work students. i found the meeting very fruitfull and interesting.  I would like to reflect on the most salient thing that stood out for me in these week was on 14th of february were we had the street visits. it was interesting to see how the journey started before we embarked into to the street, it was amazing to meet the group of guys offering their time to meet up with the homeless groups have talks with them and pray with them. out in the streets i was very shocked to hear the issues of what the homeless people go through everyday with the Police and that the Law of South Africa does little to protect the Rigths of its people. ofcourse from a social work perspective its very important that we  challenge the law and advocate for social justice, equality and equity for its people. by following the right legal chanels and procedures to achieve all this.
