Shout-It-Now

We are an innovative social enterprise, empowering youth to own their sexuality. We concentrate on hard-to-reach communities; we go to the places where they are, provide services they want, in such a way that they choose to keep coming back. Our Free Services include: Gender-Based Violence care and pre-violence services, PrEP - The HIV prevention Pill administration, HIV & STI testing and referral, and Lifeskills programs that focus on counselling, education, and behaviour adjustment skills in support of violence- and HIV-prevention catered to young women, their partners, their families, and their communities. Our staff are recruited from the communities where we serve. We offer professional services for the youth, by the youth. Our Healthcare workers, Nurses and Social Workers provide confidential care and counselling especially focused on Adolescent Girls and Young Women between the ages of 15 and 24 who are disproportionately impacted by HIV and GBV. Our services and programmes provide our clients with tools and skills that enable them to navigate their life toward a healthy tomorrow and an independent future, regardless of what their today looks like. We find innovative ways for easy accessibility to our services. We operate from large, modern, hi-tech buses and trucks. Our mobility allows for convenience to the community and creates a comfortable private environment for our clients to receive services. The Connect Hub - our young, dynamic telephonic and digital staff - ensure we are always contactable, either via WhatsApp or a call back service. Shout-It-Now is a Non-Profit Organisation that works in partnership with the South African Department of Health and is funded by PEPFAR (the United States President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief) through the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
