There is NO EXCUSE FOR ABUSE

TVEP offers an integrated range of prevention and support services to combat sexual assault, domestic violence, and child abuse and in north eastern South Africa

  • We work in Limpopo South Africa

    Limpopo is in the north east part of South Africa. Our services are primarily centred around the Vhembe district surrounding the large town of Thohoyandou.

  • We see 100+ domestic violence incidents each month

    Many more go unreported. Our trauma centres provide support to these victims while our empowerment sector facilitates classes and dialogues with the aim of reducing the incidents.

  • We see 40+ rape victims per month

    Our trauma counsellors are on hand to provide support and temporary shelter for these victims in their time of need.

  • The HIV Prevalence is 13.9%

    Men and teenange girls in Vhembe have the highest rate of new infections, so we tailor our education and outreach programs to these populations

Empowered communities CHANGE FROM WITHIN

TVEP doesn’t just support victims and turn them into survivors. We believe that empowered communities are the next step in eliminating sexual and gender-based violence and HIV stigmatisation.

CURRENT FUNDERS


Over the years we’ve been honoured to partner with and receive funding from a variety of organisations. We strive to maintain our relationships with these organisations and together, empower the people of Limpopo.
