Legal, Medical and Psychosocial Program for Victims of Domestic Violence and Commercial Sexual Exploitation –

Poverty has led to an increased vulnerability to sexual exploitation. There has been an emergence of Commercial Sexual Activity and Exploitation amongst children who use these means to pay school fees and provide the basic needs of their family. Essentially under age sexual activity has seen an increase.

WIN Belize with aid from the US Department of State, provides professional legal, medical and psycho-social services for 60 victims of either domestic violence or sexual exploitation.

Junior Winners

The Junior Winners program engages girls ages 10-14 in positive leadership and character building activities. Life skills development opportunities are promoted through the use of the Self-esteem Conflict Resolution Anger Management and Independent Living Skills (SCAIS) manual. Currently we have 42 young girls enrolled in this program.

Young Women’s Mentorship Program

WIN Belize is currently providing one-on-one mentorship to guide 10 young women ages 15 - 18 along a positive path for self-development. This program will be expanded shortly to the Youth Hostel where it is expected that 16 more young women will build their self esteem and be introduced to alternative ways of coping with gender-based violence and other forms of violence in their lives.

Community Sessions

With the assistance of our Winners Women’s Group, the Staff of WIN Belize conduct community based sessions on Sexuality & Reproductive Health, HIV and Gender Issues.
