Our Affiliates - Ministry of Safety and Security
Faith Foundation’s Affiliation with the Ministry of Safety and Security
Faith Foundation collaborates closely with the Ministry of Safety and Security, specifically through strategic partnerships with the Namibian Police Force and Namibia Correctional Services. This partnership is rooted in a shared commitment to crime prevention, youth rehabilitation, and social reintegration. Our key areas of collaboration include:
- Crime Awareness and Rehabilitation Advocacy
Faith Foundation has a formal collaboration agreement with the Namibian Police Force to advocate against crime, particularly targeting awaiting trial offenders. Through educational programs, workshops, and mentorship initiatives, we emphasize the message that “Crime Does Not Pay,” steering at-risk youth towards positive alternatives. - Psychosocial Support for Repeat Offenders
Recognizing the psychological and social challenges that contribute to repeat offenses, Faith Foundation works alongside correctional facilities to provide counseling and rehabilitation programs. These initiatives address underlying trauma, behavioral patterns, and societal reintegration strategies to break the cycle of reoffending.
3. Crime Data Analysis and Research
In partnership with law enforcement agencies, Faith Foundation assists in gathering and analyzing regional crime statistics. By identifying trends, offender demographics, and crime hotspots, we help develop data-driven interventions that target crime at its roots and support long-term crime reduction strategies.
4. Entrepreneurship and Vocational Skills Development
To reduce recidivism, Faith Foundation provides inmates and former offenders with the tools they need to rebuild their lives. Through structured entrepreneurship training, business incubation programs, and vocational skills development, we empower individuals with the means to create legal and sustainable livelihoods.
5. Cross-Sector Networking for Crime Prevention
We facilitate collaboration between government entities, businesses, non-profit organizations, and community leaders to create a unified approach to crime prevention. By fostering strong networks, we ensure that rehabilitated individuals have access to mentorship, employment opportunities, and continued support after reintegration.
6. Vocational Training and Alternative Career Pathways
Through our partnership with correctional services, Faith Foundation integrates practical skills training into rehabilitation programs. This includes vocational training in fields such as carpentry, welding, agriculture, and digital skills—ensuring that individuals leave correctional facilities with employable skills that contribute to national economic growth.
