We are Stop Trafficking of People also known as STOP, a programme under Branches of Hope, a non-government organisation in Hong Kong. Our goals are to raise awareness about human trafficking, connect with key counter-trafficking groups, provide victims with support, allow their voices to be heard, and to serve as a catalyst for positive change in the fight against modern-day slavery. We are a frontline Hong Kong-based initiative that responds to victims’ need in four ways: [Social Assistance & Legal Referral] We partner with specialized service providers such as leading human rights law firms, counsellors and temporary housing, together with our own case management services and expanding social assistance, in order to provide wraparound services for those recovering from exploitation in Hong Kong. [Community Outreach] Our outreach services connect with people who are underserved and never been rescued on a weekly basis. Due to the hidden nature of human trafficking, victims are often isolated, afraid, and at risk. Outreach allows us to provide one-to-one emotional support to victims and gather information about human trafficking, which we can further communicate to the wider audience. [Network Building] Human trafficking is an organised crime and in order to make progress organisations need to come together to collaborate to achieve common goals. We partner with interested frontline organisations to exchange information and discuss possibilities. [Public Education] We provide training and informational materials in both English and Chinese to help build capacity for identifying and responding to victims of human trafficking.
