At the handover, Anna Shobane, head of Community Corrections in Tzaneen, gave the mothers in attendance insights into the role the facility plays in rehabilitating offending behaviour.
She asked them not to tolerate abuse as it may eventually lead to retaliation, and they would end up as the culprits instead of the victims. Sgt Modjadji Patjie from Maake Police Station also addressed the mothers on the privilege of having children and motherhood.
