Realities of Aftercare Training

This training addresses commonly held myths and misconceptions commonly held about victims and survivors of human trafficking and helps to shape a more accurate “lens” for identifying and understanding its effects. The content includes trauma’s effect on the brain, shame identities, perpetrator luring techniques, risk factors for potential victims, and the importance of trauma-informed care.

Strength-Based Approach to Aftercare Training

It’s natural to notice the negatives in a situation or the weaknesses in ourselves and others. Strength-based training empowers volunteers to find the positives. This vital life skill helps in any setting, but is essential when working with survivors of sexual exploitation. Strength-based training views people as resourceful and resilient in the face of adversity. We focus on future outcomes and building an individual’s capacity to use her God-given strengths to identify and resolve life’s problems.
