Support to Victims of Human Trafficking

Human Trafficking is a form of modern day slavery in which persons, most often women and girls, are forced, threatened, coerced or deceived for the purpose of labour exploitation, commercial sexual exploitation or servitude. CSG provides support to women who have been trafficked for the purposes of prostitution, pornography, lap dancing and stripping.
