Launching with the Ontario Native Women’s Association to support Indigenous-led approaches to end human trafficking. Through the liaison program, ONWA will continue to work with its Indigenous partners to: 

• Support Indigenous communities in providing survivor-focused and localized responses to human trafficking
• Provide advice, training and capacity-building to Indigenous and non-Indigenous service providers 
• Contribute to the design, development and implementation of an Indigenous-Led Initiatives Fund
• Identify trends and targeted populations, as well as gaps in existing services.

Supporting indigenous-led approaches to end human trafficking is one of many steps on Ontario’s journey of reconciliation with Indigenous peoples.
