Situation
With over 7,000 referrals of child victims of trafficking in 2022 the numbers increase year on year. Young victims are being badly let down: no specialist support for victims, a crisis in mental health provision and rising need. They need urgent support, not a waiting game until problems escalate. Significant health and other needs due to the trauma and abuse they have suffered means that every day matters. Many are unaccompanied children at high risk of re-trafficking and abuse.
Solution
Our award-winning Youth Programme is rights based, child centred, and trauma informed, providing mentoring, peer support groups and a safe space to build stability, well-being, positive relationships, and recovery. Our THRIVE! 1:1 therapeutic, trauma-informed interventions provide an opportunity for young people embark on a journey, setting personal objectives with an overall focus on empowerment, learning skills, building strategies and promoting overall wellbeing.
