Progress report for HAART Kenya shelter

By Halima Musa | Shelter Manager

With a lot of gratitude, HAART Kenya thanks you all for your continuous support in facilitating their work of providing girl child victim of human trafficking shelter. The donations have gone a long way in aiding with provision of different intervention services to the victims.

The sole aim of establishing the shelter was to offer girl child victim of human trafficking trauma informed and victim centered services to aid them in their healing process. These services include; shelter, basic needs, psycho-social support, medical aid, legal aid and educational support that is demarcated into three areas which are; basic literacy, long term educational support and skills training.

Our goal in the past 3 months was rescue, rehabilitation, home tracing, family support, economic empowerment, reintegration and follow-up for the victims.

Since we expanded our capacity in the last reporting period, we have been able to provide shelter for more victims 2 of whom are physically disabled. During this last quarter of October, shelter’s population grew after the girls enrolled in different school reported back for holiday.

At the core of our work, was rigorous skills training for the girls. They made beautiful pieces that includes skirts, dresses, bags, indoor slippers, bangles, earrings and floor mats.

 Highlights of the period;

  • One girl was reunited with her daughter who was under the custody of the child’s father
  • One survivor had surgery on her right ankle following a prolonged period of swelling of the area where a corrective surgery had been done 6 years ago.
  • A section for Survivors own story was created on the HAART Kenya website for uploading of the girls’ pieces.
  • 6 girls were enrolled in educational institutions

 

Our goals for the coming months are to:

  • Rescue
  • Continue with the skills training and offering survivors psycho-social support, legal support, medical support and educational support
  • Home tracing
  • Reintegration
  • Getting medical insurance for all the survivors
  • Economic empowerment for victims.

We look forward to your continuous support to help us realize our mision and vision.
