The Freedom Hub, based in Sydney, NSW, exists to end slavery in Australia; to support the recovery of victims and to partner in the fight to end global slavery.
The Freedom Hub's Survivor Schools provide long-term wrap around support that includes running free, personalised classes, workshops, and peer support programs to assist survivors recovery from complex trauma, find community, and help them become ready for work.
With $29,990 granted from 100 Women in 2018, The Freedom Hub expanded their capacity to support women survivors of slavery by establishing a second Freedom Survivor School in Brisbane, Queensland. Over the project period, a team of staff and volunteers worked ceaselessly to support six survivors to recover and rebuild their lives.
"One survivor in Queensland was on the run after 15 years in slavery and had no clothes or personal items. She needed everything."
