I would like to join the coalition as an individual, however I do work at The Children’s Aid Society of Ottawa.
I have completed the Online training for Human Trafficking through both Ontario and British Colombia.
The relevance to my work is that I work directly with victims and potential victim of Human Trafficking.

Hi, I am a recent graduate with honors Performance Coach which has chosen Life Coaching as my niche. I am also a survivor of Human Trafficking from the age of 5 years. I have gone beyond surviving to living Life. I have my website at liveyourdreamslifecoaching.ca

It took me a very long time to become public with my website and even my ‘tip of the week’, as a huge part of me was afraid of being recognized from back then. I pushed through that and here I am. I was a bit nervous to even let you know this yet again I pushed through and here I am. My ‘tip of the week’ this week was on the awareness of Human Trafficking now available on my website and Youtube along with my social media sites that again took me a very long time to create as well.
You are my closet Coalition unless there is one in Peterborough. I will NOT be able to attend meetings due to the distance and the anxiety I get from driving in Ottawa. Letting me be a member is your choice yet where else do i go to join one closer????? I have taken the on-line training with helpingtraffickedpersons.org and completed it.

I am a private contractor who has worked within the Inuit community in both Nunavut and in Ottawa since 2011. I have worked women’s shelters, youth drop in centre’s, child protection, community agency providing individual and family support and case management. The risk of HT is very apparent for Inuit women and I have witnessed it first hand. Not many people are aware or willing to discuss this issue within the community but it is happening. The girls are at such risk due to long standing neglect and lack of resources that they are often targets for HT. I have a strong passion for the community and how it relates to Human trafficking.

Hello
I am the new executive director for A New Day/New Beginning. We are in the draft stages of our organization. Jodi Mosley is one of our executives on our Board of directors and suggested that I join and attend the next Coalition meeting in September.

I would love to get more details on the services I check marked. What would the tasks involve? I might have to reselect the committees, once I get more information on each one, and what would be expected of me.

I am also a photographer and videographer, so I would love to help out in that way as well.

Thank you so much!

May 5th, 2016 – Announcement: Annual Report on Barriers 2015

By | Press Release | No Comments

The OCEHT has officially launched its first Annual Report on Barriers and it has been made available to the public!

The goal of this report is to identify barriers and gaps experienced by persons who have exited or are exiting a trafficking situation with respect to access and availability of services, supports and resources. The report emphasizes areas where service improvement, further service development or partnership may be required, or where services are simply non-existent and therefore require particular attention / action on part of legislators, policy developers and/or funding schemes. These barriers have been observed beginning November 2014 until and including December 2015 by Members of OCEHT.  
The OCEHT aims to be transparent and to serve the public and community.  The year 2015 was a year of change for the OCEHT and this reports highlights key changes made to the infrastructure and operations for the past year.  The report also will give you a glimpse of new initiatives and projects in the year to come and how YOU can be involved and help us combat Human Trafficking in Ottawa and surrounding cities.  Please, have a read and share widely!  You will find the report on our website here.
