Financial Freedom
“Regaining control of finances gives survivors of human trafficking a better chance at recovery.” Our partnership with Scotiabank helps survivors regain their financial independence.
“Traffickers take control of their victims’ bank accounts, identification and credit, and in some cases rack up debt in the victims’ name, maxing out credit cards and lines of credit, Voice Found’s Bland says. “Without specially trained staff, going into a branch and trying to open an account with the disruption in their credit history exposed can be very painful,” she says. At the same time, she adds, it’s important for survivors to know their privacy is being protected.”
