Healing for Victims of Assault and Trafficking

Below is a brief summary of the Counseling and Reintegration Program in 2016:

• 25 survivors (Domestic Violence =2, Sexual Abuse =9 & Human Trafficking =14) and 8 relatives were referred to safe shelter. We added to 12 survivors (DV=5, SA=1 & HT=6) and 5 relatives from the previous period.
• Total = 37 (Domestic Violence=7, Sexual Abuse=10 & Human Trafficking =20) and 13 relatives stayed at the safe shelter in the first semester of 2016.
• Of 25 cases, 21 are under 18. The high number and % ratio of youth and children being served is something we are making a point about.
