NICRO National Office set the following goals in 1997 to ensure “that money becomes the tool and not the master”, to facilitate service programme objectives:

• Work towards financial stability by building up and maintaining a reserve fund equal to one years’ operational costs
• To use the budget as the tool to achieve financial control
• To allocate 70% of National Office budget to direct programme expenditure

Evaluation as at March 2002

Five years later we can report that NICRO National Office has achieved the goals set above and continue to work towards maintaining these goals.
Donation income for both general and programme costs continue to be a challenge, with the Diversion and Youth development programme receiving the largest percentage of donation income.
  The organisation continues to work towards programme funding commitments from our donors for a three year period.
The organisation continues to work towards programme funding commitments from our donors for a three year period.
The state subsidy for NICRO National Office has remained the same since 1999 and represents a decreasing percentage of total income, being 9% in 1999 to 4% at 2002 year end.
Donation income progressively increased since 1999, in line with an increase in programme and running cost expenditure over the same period. Running cost continues to average around 15% of total expenditure, which is in line with the goal of allocating a larger portion or our expenditure to direct programme expenditure than to running cost. 85% of total expenditure is spent on direct programme expenditure.
Financial assistance to developing provinces continues to be the responsibility of NICRO National Office until these provinces become financially sustainable.

NICRO EASTERN CAPE
 

The year 2001 passed by rapidly for NICRO Eastern Cape and was marked by tremendous enthusiasm, innovation and creative energy. The year witnessed several new beginnings, one of which was the relocation of the provincial and Port Elizabeth offices to new premises set in attractive and peaceful surroundings. The move improved staff morale and, we feel certain, has been of great benefit to our clients.

In November 2001 NICRO Eastern Cape hosted the most important event on NICRO’s calendar, the Biennial General Meeting, and the annual awards gala events.

The Offender Reintegration Programme and the Economic Opportunities Programme jointly undertook a third round of placements in the Working for Water Programme. To make the Programme more impactful and ensure a more meaningful contribution towards the successful reintegration of former offenders, all participants from the previous round of placements were exposed to a five-day adapted version of NICRO’s Tough Enough Programme (TEP). By the time they assumed employment with the Working for Water Programme, they had made a firm commitment towards constructive reintegration and had a clear idea of how to ensure an income after the 120-day contract employment period came to an end.
Mr Rand Kannenberg, a professional from the United States of America, was recruited to conduct training sessions for Community Victim Support, Diversion and Offender Reintegration staff in Sociotherapy for Sociopaths. This was made possible with financial assistance from the NICRO Innovation Fund.
The Eastern Cape conducted a round of group work sessions with male perpetrators of domestic violence in Port Elizabeth. This therapeutic programme is going from strength to strength, largely as a result of the excellent working relationship that has been established with the Department of Justice. The project now includes a programme for the partners or spouses of these men.
Young offenders in conflict with the law who have been successfully diverted from the criminal justice system, and their parents alike, have offered very positive feedback about our Diversion programme.
NICRO Eastern Cape has taken on the challenge of integrating its service delivery, an approach which will involve close collaboration between NICRO’s programmes. This team approach will ensure that our four programmes (CVS, EOP, OR and Diversion) do not target communities in isolation, but provide more holistic, consolidated services to the communities in which we operate.
