The SmilingOne Foundation: October 2010

October 6th 2010

LOVING ACTION for our beautiful country South Africa.

The SmilingOne Foundation, our strong team of Responsibility Coaches, Students and their clients, Prison Management & Officials, SmilingOne Founder Karina Andersen and guests Vaughan McGee (SmilingOne Re-integration), Nicole Wagner and Nadia Lubowski were celebrating journeys of change and responsible living within Brandvlei Maximum Prison.

THE RESPONSIBLE INDIVIDUAL has been facilitated since January 2008 within the prison. 4 fully qualified coaches, 10 coach students and a handful of clients (hundreds) have come out of this process so far (and activated the process in another 3 prisons due to transfers)... and we are still going strong : )

If you doubt that change is possible... you gotta experience this process. It will take you BEYOND...

THE RESPONSIBLE INDIVIDUAL as Responsible Rehabilitation (RR)

We started the Responsible Rehabilitation (RR) process January 16th 2008 with 16 inmates in the Brandvlei Maximum Prison. Today hundreds of inmates have been part of the programme THE RESPONSIBLE INDIVIDUAL and each day more are inviting change and responsible living into their lives.

In 2011 we are active in Brandvlei Maximum, Medium and Juvenile Prison, Goodwood Medium and Worcester Medium Prison. More to come through the year.

We strongly believe in sustainability and that everything brought to a community must be able to stay and be nurtured within the community for continuous learning and growth / expansion. Our sustainability package for each project includes education of a handful of coaches/guides (inmates), who have a natural calling to guide and who are walking their talk, living by example.

SmilingOne is furthermore offering a Re-Integration programme that since October 2009 has run very successfully in Cape Town - involving ex-offenders in community and youth development.
