SAITS Vision & Mission

Our Vision
Our vision is to build expertise and capacity for the delivery of effective and appropriate traumatic stress services towards a healthy and peaceful South Africa for all.

Our Mission
We aim to strengthen civil society and sustain democracy in South Africa through advancing appropriate, effective and integrated traumatic stress services to victims of violence and other vulnerable groups. We will achieve this through the provision of capacity building programs for civil society and government which are based on relevant theory, research and local practice; and through proactive advocacy work in partnership with relevant stakeholders.
