11 CONTINUE Transitional housing- 140 beds, where clients were part of a developmental programme or working but exiting the programme within 12 months

12 Challenge with EXIT after 12 months The challenge was about the clients that were to exit

13 CONTINUE MES saw the need to expand their housing solution to include products that would address the need for affordable accommodation to clients earning a combined family income of less than R3500/ month

14 CONTINUE Due to the scope and financial risk that a new housing organisation would bring to MES, the MES Board decided to structure MHA outside the current MES structure into a separate Not for Profit Company.

15 STRATEGY MES’s sustainable exit strategy was the establishment of Madulammoho Housing Association (MHA)

16 A formal SLA was established SLA
