About KwaZulu-Natal
KwaZulu-Natal has one of South Africa's largest social grant beneficiary populations. The province spans urban centres (Durban, Pietermaritzburg), extensive rural areas, and the Zululand region.
Unique SRD Challenges in KwaZulu-Natal
Flooding in coastal areas can disrupt SASSA office operations during summer months. Rural beneficiaries in uMkhanyakude and Zululand districts often rely on mobile SASSA units.
