Das bieten wir
The residential care unit is a Christian run home-like environment for victims of human trafficking and their children. Our vision is for people who have been victims of human trafficking to become empowered to fully participate in society as they recover in a safe and loving environment. A holistic approach to empowerment includes supporting the residents in activities related to daily living as well as matters related to the mind, body, and spirit. A client-centered and trauma-informed perspective is important to the work of the ministry.
Care is provided around the clock with a diverse and multi-disciplinary team and volunteers. English and Finnish are used as primary languages of the team, while different languages are used with the residents. Having enough volunteers to help run the house is essential to its functioning.
Besides the residential care unit, the ministry aims to do awareness raising and training events and is looking for creative ways to do fundraising.
