Support to Standby Guardians
As a caregiver, a standby guardian will need support from both home
visitors and the community. Caregivers need care and support themselves,
in order to give effective care and support to orphans and vulnerable
children. Apart from needing to make sure that their own needs are met,
caregivers and standby guardians may need:- counselling
- training in OVC care
- psychosocial support
- food security production packs
