Description:
The Journey to Justice Program will support survivors of sex trafficking as they navigate the complexities of the criminal justice system. The program will provide trauma-informed, survivor-centered advocacy and support to survivors through every stage of the legal process—from initial contact with police services to court proceedings and post-court support. The program can be accessed by survivors through self or community partner referral, at any time throughout their justice journey. In addition to support with the criminal justice system, the program will provide individualized case management to support survivors in creating and implementing their journey to justice plan which survivors have indicated must include life stabilization support and/or alternatives to justice outside of the criminal justice system. Through individualized case management, including justice system navigation, life stabilization support and internal referrals to London Abused Women’s Centre’s Anti-Human Trafficking Phoenix Program for counselling and advocacy services, the program will help women and girls with lived and living experience of sex trafficking understand their rights, connect with legal resources, and make informed decisions. The goal of the program is to reduce retraumatization and promote healing by ensuring survivors are heard and supported.
