Increasing CHV's Capacity to Serve Trafficked Youth
FY 2020-21 · 2021-02-08
Summary
This 32 month project with Covenant House Vancouver will develop and implement intervention practices that will advance knowledge and enhance empowerment supports for youth aged 16 to 24 at risk of, or survivors of, sexual exploitation and human trafficking in Vancouver.
This will be achieved by researching, drafting, distributing and evaluating a practice guide, tool kit, and training model to support frontline staff and community partners to provide empowerment supports for trafficked youth.
At the end of the project the organization will have strengthened policies and practices with respect to human trafficking and sexual exploitation of youth. CHV staff will be fully trained and supported to implement best practices, and the tool kit generated by the project will be shared at a training session for community partners.
The project will include an external evaluation that will look at the success and scalability of the promising practices.
The supplement funds will be used to address higher project-related costs than what was budgeted in the project outset.

Description (French)
Ce projet de 32 mois, mené en collaboration avec l’organisme Covenant House Vancouver (CHV), permettra d’élaborer et de mettre en œuvre des pratiques d’intervention qui enrichiront les connaissances et favoriseront l’autonomisation des jeunes de 16 à 24 ans à risque d’exploitation sexuelle et de traite de personnes à Vancouver ou qui y ont survécu.
Pour ce faire, on procédera à des recherches, à la conception, à la distribution et à l’évaluation d’un guide de pratique, d’une trousse d’outils et d’un modèle de formation visant à aider le personnel de première ligne et les partenaires communautaires à fournir des mesures de soutien à l’autonomisation des jeunes victimes de la traite.
À la fin du projet, l’organisme aura renforcé ses politiques et pratiques en matière de traite de personnes et d’exploitation sexuelle des jeunes. Le personnel du CHV sera entièrement formé et soutenu afin de pouvoir mettre en œuvre des pratiques exemplaires, et la trousse d’outils produite dans le cadre du projet sera présentée au cours d’une séance de formation destinée aux partenaires communautaires.
Le projet comprendra un exercice d’évaluation externe qui portera sur le succès et l’évolution des pratiques prometteuses.
Les fonds supplémentaires serviront à couvrir les coûts liés au projet qui sont plus élevés que ceux prévus dans le budget établi au début du projet.
Expected Results
Promising practices are incorporated by the GBV sector into new or enhanced supports for target populations.
Expected Results (French)
Intégration, par le secteur, des pratiques prometteuses aux mesures de soutien nouvelles ou améliorées qu’il offre aux populations ciblées.

Program Purpose
The purpose of the GBV Program is to strengthen the GBV sector to address gaps in supports for two groups of survivors: 1) Indigenous women and their communities, and 2) underserved populations (including women living with a disability, non-status/refugee /immigrant women, LGBTQ2S, gender non-conforming people and ethno-cultural women) in Canada. The Program provides grant and contribution funding to Canadian organizations to improve supports to help create long-term, comprehensive solutions at the national, regional, and local levels.
Program Purpose (French)
Le Programme de financement de la lutte contre la violence fondée sur le sexe (le Programme) vise à renforcer la lutte contre la violence fondée sur le sexe (VFS) et, en particulier, à remédier au manque de soutien pour deux catégories de survivantes et survivants, soit : 1) les femmes autochtones et leurs communautés; et 2) les populations sous-desservies au Canada (notamment les femmes handicapées, les femmes réfugiées, immigrantes ou en situation irrégulière, les personnes allosexuelles et les femmes des minorités ethnoculturelles). Il s’agit d’un programme de subventions et contributions pour les organismes canadiens qui mènent des projets visant à améliorer les mesures d’aide offertes et à créer des solutions durables et complètes à l’échelle nationale, régionale et locale.
