Progress report for HAART Kenya shelter

By Halima Musa | Shelter Manager

In the past 3 months of HAART Kenya shelter’s work of offering care and protection services to child victims of human trafficking, we have been able to realize monumental achievements in line with our set objectives and even beyond including hosting 2 victims living with physical disability which called for capacity building of the staff in order to ensure the victims receive specialized care.

All this wouldn’t have been possible without your support which we are heartily grateful for. Our shelter which has been operational for 2 years now offers protection services to child victims of human trafficking. The services offered include; shelter for safety, provision of food and clothing, psychotherapy, medical aid, legal aid and educational support.

Our focus during this reporting period was; rescue, rehabilitation, home tracing, family support, economic empowerment, reintegration and follow-up after reintegration of victims.

A lot of activities took place during the month of November and December. The girls enrolled in boarding schools reported back to the shelter for holiday raising the population. To ensure they fully enjoyed their holiday, fun activities that included talent shows, cultural week, game drive, house decoration for Christmas and gifting during boxing day were incooperated in the schedule.

The victims carried on with skills training activities to learn computer, art and design skills. They made beautiful Ankara dresses for themselves, flower vases and Christmas wall decorations.

Highlights of the period;

  • 8 victims were reintergrated and 3 repatriated (2 to Ethiopia and 1 to Uganda)
  • 8 home tracings were done and 3 families received economic empowerment
  • 5 girls sat for their final primary education and will continue receiving educational support.
  • 29 victims offered shelter and provided with food and clothing.

Our goals for the coming months are to:

  • Rescue
  • Proceed with provision of all the rehabilitation services mentioned above.
  • Home tracing
  • Reintegration
  • Getting medical insurance for new survivors
  • Economic empowerment for victims.

We look forward to your continuous support.
