Our anti-violence programming for women and girls focuses on reducing the risk of sexual exploitation and violence, trafficking, domestic violence, and other types of violence experienced by forcibly displaced women and girls and other groups. We believe everyone has a role to play in keeping women and girls safe, so we engage entire communities — men, women, boys, and girls — in this work. These lifesaving programs ensure all survivors of sexual or physical violence can access services and improve their safety and overall wellbeing amidst extremely challenging circumstances.</p> <p>This approach enables HIAS to:</p> <ul> <li>Recognize the strength of all survivors.</li> <li>Meet the safety, health, psychosocial, legal, and economic needs of survivors.</li> <li>Connect survivors to lifesaving healthcare, psychosocial support, and justice.</li> <li>Work with communities to challenge attitudes and behaviors that normalize sexual and physical violence against women and girls.</li> </ul> </div> </article> </div> </section> <section id="block-indented-list-block_a83270abdd88b3ddb72bc589361be016" class="block-indented-list"> <div class="simpatico-container simpatico-grid" data-jazzy-scroll="fade-in-up"> <article class="simpatico-grid"> <h2>Strategies</h2> <p class="large">HIAS’ life-changing anti-violence programs provide survivors of, and women and girls vulnerable to, sexual and physical violence with the resources to find support, build resilience, and heal.
