Employment Skills Training for Women who are Beneficiaries of Welfare Services Accommodated in Shelters for victims of domestic violence and trafficking is a career guidance and counseling service specially developed for victims of domestic violence and trafficking accommodated in shelters. 

A series of workshops are delivered to empower women accommodated in the safe spaces for developing skills for individual job seeking so they can build independence after leaving a safe space and return to everyday activities. Workshops focus on understanding the importance of recognizing personal traits, qualifications and skills for professional development, exploring the labour market opportunities, connecting with possible employers, understanding the importance of retaining employment and exploring the resources of additional support.  

A Facilitator’s Guide, which has been developed during the program, provides detailed instructions, tools and activities, so the program can be easily replicated in other organizations working with similar target groups.
