• The Fatherhood Foundation of SA is positioning to acquire property for a fully functioning, self sustaining Rehab and Training Centre to deal with the large influx of people in need. Drug addiction, alcohol abuse, domestic violence cases and such like require a dedicated facility. • For most who face addiction issues, whether it is alcohol or drugs, there are often emotional issues that caused initial dependence on drugs or alcohol.
