Oakville-based Sexual Assault and Vio­ lence Intervention Services (SAVIS) of Halton will receive $413,910 toward its pro­ ject Halton Collaborative Against Human Trafficking, which aims to deliver rent as­ sistance for survivors. The official announcement was made on Jan. 19. The more than $400,000 funding will al­ so complement a $990,669 grant from Onta­ rio's Anti-Human Trafficking Community Supports Fund, which will go toward SA- VIS emergency and crisis response sup­ ports and long-term mobile outreach. "We have heard from our partners on the front lines of this issue that human trafficking can happen in any community, and that many survivors struggle to move forward. Helping survivors in Oakville ac­ cess housing can help them stay free of their trafficker and start a new life," said Oakville MPP Kevin Flynn. The funding announcement is part of the more than $7 million being provided by the federal government and the province to help survivors of human trafficking in Ontario through new transitional housing and rent assistance. "Through this investment, our govern­ ment is providing assistance to those who need it most here in Oakville and in all cor­ ners of the country," said Oakville MP John Oliver. "Projects like the Halton Collaboration Against Human Trafficking will provide more than just safe and affordable places to live, they are key to a better life for the residents who will call them home." Ontario's Strategy to End Human Traf­ ficking is part of the provincial govern­ ment's aim to ensure everyone can live in safety and free from the threat, fear or ex­ perience of exploitation and violence, ac­ cording to a media release. The strategy includes an investment of up to $72 million to increase awareness and co-ordination, enhance justice-sector ini­ tiatives and improve survivors' access to services.
