This publication serves as trauma-informed toolkit for anti-trafficking providers to establish housing services for trafficking survivors.
This publication of Freedom Network USA provides a framework that anti-trafficking providers offering housing services can utilize to build trauma-informed, person-centered, and voluntary housing program for trafficking survivors. The information and references within the toolkit are focused on housing services and is intended for antihuman trafficking housing providers. Many of the theories and recommendations are applicable in non-housing programs and for nonsurvivors as well. The document reviews the fundamentals of multiple philosophies to build foundational understanding as well as ways to implement these philosophies into programmatic operations and service provision. It is important that providers view housing services and housing needs on a spectrum and that each community evaluates the needs of human trafficking survivors, the housing options available in the community, and the types of victim service providers offering housing services. Providers and community members must take an active role in evaluating the current housing services available to human trafficking survivors and where there are gaps in services.
