 The Drug Educational Council was established in 2000 to meet the needs of our communities with the challenges facing the growing drug epidemic across the country.  The focal objectives of the council are firstly to counsel drug abusers as to the options at hand to overcome the predicament that they find themselves in.  Secondly, the DEC, undertakes to play an informative role in assisting families, corporations and the community at large of the impending factors surrounding drug addiction.  Thirdly, the Council has identified as necessity to play an auxiliary role to rehabilitation in the reintegration of recovered addicts back into their respective communities.  Based on this third objective the following life-skills program has been developed.

In determining the ideal place to conduct the program, due consideration was given to the accessibility of drugs within the community.  As one can well imagine, finding a town in our country, which is drug free, is virtually impossible, the influx of drugs has entered into every sector of our country with the only variant to be found in the consistency of supply.  With this challenge at hand, it was decided to begin the program in a small railroad town called Noupoort, which is positioned between Bloemfontein and Port Elizabeth.  The town of Noupoort at present is renowned for a very successful drug rehabilitation center; however, it is to be noted that the CLSP (Christian Life Skills Program), has no direct relation of intervention from the said rehabilitation center. The CLSP has purchased five railroad homes to accommodate recovering addicts.  The homes are equipped with homely requirements ranging from splash pool-to-DSTV.
