Who is asking. This form is run by Indigo Girl Foundation, a
registered non-profit organisation in South Africa, backed by a pro bono legal team.
This will be contributing to legal action that will be taken against the institutions.
Our Information Officer is Indigo Haddington, and you can reach him at
info@indigogirlfoundation.com .
What we are asking for, and what we are not. Only what is on this page:
How to reach you
Your province
The capacity you are coming forward in
If you are a lawyer or a counsellor, your professional body and registration
number, so that we can check it
We are not asking what happened to you. There are no questions about your
experience yet.
It is voluntary. You do not have to fill this in and you do not have
to answer every question. If you leave out a way to reach you, we cannot reply to you.
That is the only consequence.
Your rights, and how to complain
You may ask us to confirm what personal information we hold about you, free of charge.
You may ask us to correct or delete anything inaccurate, irrelevant, excessive or out of date.
You may object to our processing, and you may withdraw consent at any time.
Only our own team sees this, and only those who need to. We do not sell your
details, we do not give them to donors, and we do not give them to the media.
You may complain to the Information Regulator of South Africa, JD House,
27 Stiemens Street, Braamfontein, Johannesburg, 2001, on Form 5.
Our Information Officer is Indigo Haddington. Write to
info@indigogirlfoundation.com
to ask what we hold, to correct it, or to have it deleted.
I am here as
Someone this happened to, or someone who loves them
You will go on the updates list. We will not ask you for your story today.
A lawyer or advocate offering pro bono time
Constitutional, administrative, human rights, delict or GBV practice.
Someone with counselling or support experience
Counsellors, psychologists, social workers, trauma practitioners.
I need legal help with my own case
Please choose this. We would rather point you somewhere useful than let you wait on us.
Please read this before you go any further.
We cannot take on individual cases, and we would rather tell you now than let you
wait months on us. The organisations listed under
need help today do assess individual matters and can
guide you. You are still very welcome to add your name below for updates. Just
please do not wait on us for help with your own matter.
One of the two is enough. Whichever is safer for you.
Submitting this does not make anyone your lawyer, does not guarantee
representation, and does not begin legal proceedings.
