About
The Klerksdorp CPF is a community oversight and partnership body — not a shelter, counselling service, or direct GBV intervention. Its GBV-relevant work focuses on: community awareness campaigns on domestic violence and GBV; public education about rights, crime prevention, and how to report abuse; partnerships between SAPS Klerksdorp and civil society organisations serving GBV victims; community-level advocacy for police accountability in handling DV and sexual offence cases; and neighbourhood watch coordination across Klerksdorp's sectors (Freemanville, Roosheuwel, Oudorp, and others). For GBV survivors in Klerksdorp, the CPF's value lies in its community presence and its role as a bridge to SAPS services — it can be a starting point for navigating available resources. For direct GBV support: SAPS Klerksdorp 018 464 5000 / GBV Command Centre 0800 428 428 (toll-free, 24/7) / NG Welfare Klerksdorp (5 Halgryn Street, Pienaarsdorp — previously listed).
