Brussels today - Doras's @donnahsvuma at the Joint Meeting of the EU Network of National Rapporteurs and Equivalent Mechanisms and the Civil Society Platform against #trafficking in human beings. @RuhamaAgency@NushaYonkova@_IHREC
Ruhama is attending the meeting of the EU civil Society Platform against Trafficking in Human Beings in Brussels today, kicked off by the EU Anti-Trafficking Coordinator, Diane Schmitt & EU Commissioner for Home Affairs Ylva Johansson
At Ruhama, we believe that survivors of sexual exploitation can rebuild their sense of self-worth when they learn to process and integrate their trauma. In 2022, Ruhama’s Trauma Therapy team engaged with 79 service users for one-to-one therapy sessions.

Today is #EUAntiTraffickingDay. In 2022, Ruhama engaged with 497 individuals, 147 of whom were victims of trafficking for the purpose of sexual exploitation: an increase of 68% on 2021. These women inhabit a stark underworld where they are exploited, coerced & abused every day.
Ruhama is seeking to recruit a Caseworker responsible for providing a holistic person-centred approach to care and case management for service users impacted by #prostitution and sex trafficking.
