“I would say if it weren’t for Chrysalis, I wouldn’t have been who I am today because I was a shy person- if I didn’t come here I would also have been maybe addicted to drugs because most of my friends I had are drugs addict, they can’t get rid of the drugs... and due to the fact that I came to Chrysalis I’m not even regretting I was here and thanks to Chrysalis I’m glad to say I’m a person- I’m proud to be who I am today.” (Female graduate in 2005 from Hanover Park)
Community Phase The final Community Phase is the preparation for life back in the ‘real’ world and focuses on life orientation skills and career guidance. Affiliation with one of our Chrysalis Community Youth Clubs or a community organisation is encouraged whereby much emphasis is placed on positive community work like sports coaching in schools or neighbourhood watch patrolling. This participation helps students to appreciate the possibility of wider work opportunities and encourages them to get involved with the community.
