Assessment of Shelter Versus Community Based Services Report
Download File (1.1 MB)
The USAID-funded Counter Trafficking in Persons program in Cambodia assessed shelter and community-based care models for trafficking victims. The assessment considered availability of care, cost, strengths and weaknesses, and victims’ opinions. Findings indicate that victims benefit most from a participatory model that emphasizes safety and respect, provides a continuum of services (from crisis intervention through vocational training and re-integration into community), offers quality care, has accessible community-based services separate from crisis centers and addresses poverty.
