The Caring Network

Vision: A society in which all the vulnerable and ill, especially those with HIV/AIDS, are appropriately supported and are able to enjoy quality of life.

• To provide individuals from previously disadvantaged communities, particularly those who are unemployed, with training in life skills and healthcare.
• To establish a network of care groups to care for the sick, particularly those with HIV/AIDS.
• To provide a professionally supervised home-based care service.
• To provide ongoing support, capacity building and training to these care groups and home-based carers.
• To promote this particular developmental model of care and assist other groups in establishing similar networks.
• To develop a culture of caring and spirituality.
• To co-operate to the fullest degree with organizations and individuals with similar, or related, aims and objectives.
• To use appropriate lobbying and advocacy strategies to ensure the effective delivery of public health services to the vulnerable and ill, and in support of home-based carers.
