Connecting victims of human trafficking for the purposes of sexual exploitation to the supports they need.
A Network of Support
To address rising incidents of human trafficking for the purposes of sexual exploitation in Alberta, Safer Way Out is working with social agencies, law enforcement agencies and community groups across Alberta to develop an integrated response model to support victims and survivors.
Safety Network Coordinators

Safety Network Coordinators assist with crisis intervention ensuring victims and survivors are in a state of safety.
Safety Network Coordinators work with victims and survivors with a comprehensive assessment of needs.
Safety Network Coordinators work in establishing plans and the coordination for medium to long term supports.

INITIATIVE PARTNERS
Resources for Shelters
Shelters play a big role in supporting trafficking victims. When victims are looking for safety, oftentimes they turn to shelters for refuge. Equipping shelters with the right tools, information and training will be important in connecting victims to the specialized supports they need. If there is specific training you feel would be beneficial for you or your shelter staff to successfully accept referrals from the Safety Network Coordinator, we invite you to send your feedback and questions about the Safer Way Out initiative to saferwayout@reachedmonton.ca.
