Alta du Toit Aftercare centre, situated in Cape Town, South Africa is a safe haven where adults with intellectual disabilities can live and work. The centre serves communities in the Western Cape including persons from previously disadvantaged communities. It was opened in April 1978 . Currently the centre has 160 residential clients and 60 day-care clients. We provide physical and nursing care to these adults and they all take part in an established skills development programme to ensure optimal development throughout their adult lives, whilst living in the centre. We want each person to reach his/her full potential.
