Late 2025, Stritgrad Academy, led by Joseph, began engagements with the Gauteng Dept of Community Safety (GCS) under the leadership of Director Margaret Mashiane—with collaboration now continuing on the ground.

At Green Door sites—safe spaces in underserved communities supporting victims of crime and violence—we engaged ambassadors and beneficiaries to understand real challenges.

We also met ambassadors and explored ways to support them beyond the stipend, especially those interested in entrepreneurship as an alternative economic pathway.

The focus remains: moving beyond healing to empowerment—through alternative income initiatives and economic reintegration beyond Ekhaya Lethemba.

Through partnerships with stakeholders such as Young African Entrepreneurs Institute (youth-focused) and AEDC (women-focused), we aim to connect beneficiaries to real opportunities, skills development, and sustainable livelihoods.
