What it reported doing in 2025

Human rights protection, recovery, and education hagar USA funds "the whole journey" for clients in cambodia, vietnam and afghanistan. This program provides safe accommodation, legal support, counseling, case management, education supports, economic empowerment and job training, and helps to build safety networks to prevent traumatic events from re-occuring. Hagar USA funds from a 3 year grant are providing hagar international with the capacity to expand trauma informed care operations in the northwest provinces of cambodia, expand empowerment programs and safe accommodation for women and children in afghanistan and provide safe and nurturing homes for survivors in recovery. Across these countries this grant will also increase prevention efforts to empower communities through awareness-raising materials and campaigns on trafficking, exploitation & abuse and assist in establishing a "center for excellence" promoting the care of those impacted by trauma. Hagar international is continuing their trauma informed care capacity building project in myanmar since 2017. The purpose of the project is to share hagars expertise in trauma recovery services in a country with very limited social services support for those who have suffered trauma. The funding helped to support hagar to develop curriculum, train, and provide ongoing coaching for 4 large ngos (serving tens of thousands of clients) on effective trauma care. The project continued in 2018 when the training of trainers model was implemented to expand the number of organizations who are trauma informed as well as supplemental training to address faith and resiliency needs of trauma suvivors and domestic violence awareness training and tools for christian NGO trainers. Hagar international is continuing to serve boy survivors of human trafficking in afghanistan. As part of the project they are also working with community leaders for prevention efforts and to raise greater awareness of the issue.
