Article By: Phenyo Babusi

A social worker is calling for enhanced community support to help orphaned children who continue to face both emotional and economic challenges.

In an interview with Gabz FM News, Social Worker Boemo Laba emphasized the need for stronger community involvement, better mental health services, and greater access to quality education to offer orphaned children hope for a brighter future.

Laba acknowledged the important role of existing programs like Childline but stressed that more must be done to address the growing needs of these vulnerable children.
