Thuthuzela Care Centres (TCCs)

Thuthuzela Care Centres (TCCs) are one-stop facilities introduced as a critical part of South Africa’s anti-rape strategy, aiming to reduce secondary victimisation and build a case ready for successful prosecution. Fifty-one centres have been established since 2006 in an attempted to make the centres accessible to all South Africans who need TCC related services.
