Owning your life and living out who you really are, is the bravest thing that we will ever do.
At HopeNow, we outreach, we document, we provide empowerment and legal counselling and early prevention of re-trafficking.
Membership includes:
Outreach in high-risk areas to identify potentially trafficked people: Outreach and social work in the prostitution environment on the streets of Copenhagen, in areas of forced labour, in danish prisons, detention centres, asylum centres, departure centres, and churches to identify trafficked people. We document indicators of trafficking and bridge-building between trafficked people and Danish authorities.
Empowerment counselling: Therapeutic support and trauma therapy so that individuals can process trauma and gain improved self-esteem. Offer free meals, personal care necessities, and referrals to medical support
Free legal advice: We were awarded the European Crime Prevention Award in 2014 by the EU Crime Prevention Network (EUCPN) for setting a legal precedent for our preventive work against human trafficking.
Provide support for rehabilitation/reintegration to prevent re-trafficking: Trafficked people are highly vulnerable to re-trafficking immediately after exiting a trafficking situation and en route to assistance. Victims of trafficking are frequently re-trafficked within two years or less of escaping a trafficking situation.
Teach and raise awareness of the rights of trafficked people: As soon as we have documentation and evidence of trafficking, we do our best to teach and raise awareness of trafficking through lectures and events in all of Denmark, as well as lobby and advocacy work for the rights and protection of trafficked people.
