This toolkit compiles information, supports, and resources identified by the community to assist Networks of Care in supporting survivors of human trafficking. It serves as a guide to better understand survivors’ needs and provide meaningful support. Every experience is different, and each situation has its own nuances and unique details to consider. Please be mindful that the contents within this toolkit may provoke feelings of discomfort. Reach out to your support networks as needed. If you are in is a crisis, consider contacting the Assaulted Women's Helpline at 1-866-863-0511 or visiting iDetermine.ca for support.
Before beginning this work, Networks of Care and others supporting survivors are encouraged to reflect on their boundaries and what feels comfortable for them when offering support. Caring for others also requires caring for ourselves, which involves setting boundaries and practicing self-care, however that looks like to you!
