Das erwartet dich
Rose project offers a supported housing program for survivors of human trafficking and their children. Residents live independently, receive support for coping in everyday life, and have the opportunity to participate in joint activities and programs organised by the team and wider community.
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 and towards autonomy includes supporting the residents in activities related to daily living and official appointments as well as matters related to the mind, body, and spirit. A survivor-centered and trauma-informed perspective is important to the work of the ministry.
