FAITH. HOPE. LOVE.
TRAFFICKED PEOPLE
We are working on improving the current government legislation regarding people trafficking, and travel around the country giving training to local government bodies.
SCHOOL PROGRAMME
We run sessions on issues such as HIV/AIDS and sex trafficking for school children and students, to allow them to discuss these otherwise often taboo issues.
REFUGEES
At our centre on Krasnova Street, we provide long-term support to those who have moved to Odessa seeking refuge from their home countries. This includes sustained consulation with social workers and psychologists, pitching and implementing business plans and teaching.
STREET CHILDREN
We work to provide street children with training and refuge.
COMMUNITY CENTRE
A centre for those affected by HIV/AIDS and addiction. It is permanently staffed by social workers, many of whom have come through periods of addiction and illness themselves. The centre is a safe space to socialise and recieve confidential advice, contraceptives and health checks.
