Behind closed doors and in the quiet moments of daily life, many face a silent struggle. Gender-based violence, trafficking, and the immense challenges newcomers face are complex issues, often hidden by shame, fear, and a lack of access to information. It’s a reality that creates significant barriers for those who desperately need help.
The journey to seek help is often the hardest step. Victims of violence and trafficking frequently carry an overwhelming sense of shame or guilt. This feeling, combined with the fear of retaliation or judgment, can make reaching out for support seem impossible. For newcomers, this isolation is compounded by cultural differences and a new environment where trusted connections are few. The emotional toll of these experiences is immense, and it’s what keeps so many from finding the lifeline they need. significant barriers for those who desperately need help.
Even when someone finds the courage to seek help, they face another obstacle: a lack of digital literacy. For many, especially older individuals or those from communities with limited technology access, finding and navigating support resources online can be confusing and overwhelming. A cluttered website, complex language, or a difficult search function can quickly become a barrier, causing them to give up before they even find the right information.
