HometownSA is the first encounter or the main point of contact when a drug addict decides to look for help to change they lives and move away from drugs. Often the families of the person involved in drugs would reach out to us and ask if we can help?
HometownSA is not a Rehab Center but its field work NPO Organisations that helps with placing drug addicts at a correct Rehab Center as well as helping them cover basic costs that may occur during the intake process and the duration of their rehabilitation process.
Counseling before Placement
We provide counselling and understand the state which each person that come or brought to us. We also try and understand if the person is ready for rehabilitation before placing them at a Rehab Center.
If the Rehab Applicant is underage, HometownSA will contact the family of the applicant and help ask if they give us permission to counselling their children before placing them at a Rehab Center.
Gathering Documents
After the counselling and have understood the state of the person. We than find a Rehab Center that will help them and find out what documents they need for that rehabilitation intake process; we then help them with gathering the documents and help with completing and submitting them.

Funding Basic Needs
The biggest part of the organization’s financial spending is helping our Rehab Candidates with funding their basic needs during their rehabilitation process. This is to help them focus on their rehab process rather than worry about things their need. We help with Toiletries, Clothes and Allowance to spend at the Rehab Center.
Rehab Placement
After we have helped with all the above process and have found a Rehab Center that will be able to take our Rehab Applicants, HometownSA also covers the costs of transportation to book the applicant to a Rehab Centers.
After Rehabilitation
Hometown SA is mostly funded by Phomolong Butchery, which helps with jobs opportunities after a successful rehabilitation. The butchery also opens up is space for intake process, when not busy.
