The programs provide a range of services for students ages 2-25 years with the aim of preparedness for higher education or to enter the workforce.

A Snapshot of Johannesburg, Diepsloot and Uthando
Diepsloot and Alexandra are townships north of Johannesburg, and Uthando is an inner city neighborhood. All three neighborhoods are deeply shaped by the history of apartheid. Afrika Tikkun has centers in each of these locations and as a result works with a wide range of children and young adults.
