Globally millions are trapped in modern day slavery and exploited in the most heinous manner, leaving victims and survivors, brutally abused, traumatised, and mentally affected. COVID-19 pandemic has opened a breeding ground for criminals, leaving the most vulnerable at risk of being trafficked. Recent statistics has shown a massive rise in cases.<\/p>\n<p>Hope to Heal Foundation is the first point for survivors before cases are handed over for investigation. Working with human trafficking over the past three years, Seema Naidoo the Founder of the Hope to Heal Foundation, identified the gap for trauma informed services and programmes for victims and survivors of Human Trafficking and stepped in to fill the gap by opening the first Wellness Centre in South Africa, <strong>The Hope to Heal Wellness Centre: \u201cwhere Healing begins, and Dignity is restored\u201d.<\/strong> This Centre has been created to bring holistic healing to victims and survivors of human trafficking and to facilitate their effective re-integration into society. Through partnerships with Professionals\u2019, the Centre will be offering a bouquet trauma informed service.<\/p>\n<p>Seema\u2019s great concerns are rehabilitation and reintegration of survivors into society. Should they not receive the proper trauma informed services and care, victims and survivors are at risk of being exploited and living with mental health issues. Every victim and survivor have a massive effect in communities and society at large. Our aim is for victims and survivors to become leaders in society.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Hope to Heal Wellness Centre is the first centre for victims and survivors of human trafficking in South Africa, offering a bouquet of trauma informed services.<\/strong> Through partnership with various professional service providers. The programmes and training done, are educational and therapeutic. The beautiful, landscaped garden will be used for outdoor counselling, activities like yoga, meditation or just relaxation. We also created an outdoor gym area as physical wellness plays a vital role in one\u2019s physical and mental wellbeing.<\/p>\n<p>Apart from housing and providing meals, toiletries and trauma informed services to the victims and survivors, we need to ensure our monthly expenses are met.<\/p>\n<p>We have come so far in translating our conceptual Vision into a beautiful, tranquil reality, through generous donations, partners, and service providers. For our effective operation of the Wellness Centre, we require committed support and partnerships so that Victims feel respected, honoured and physiologically secure. We hope that the purity of our intent can be felt and that this message is ministering to your heart. Through your kind support and partnership by means of funding and donations, we can reach our full potential in ensuring that each survivor is loved and well taken care of.
