Providing Shelterand Hope Our Mission Government law enforcement agencies often in partnership with nongovernment organizations conduct rescue operations on an ongoing basis in the Philippines. After a rescue government and nongovernment agencies refer survivors to residential care homes that provide shelter and rehabilitation to those rescued in an effort to bring about longterm healing and restoration. The primary goal of aftercare shelters is the successful reintegration of survivors back to safe communities. However the vulnerabilities that led survivors to being trafficked are likely to still exist since survivors are often underresourced and undereducated.
