In November 2004, the Angel
Coalition's Moscow Trafficking Victim Assistance Center
(TVAC) opened four Russian-language toll-free help-lines
in Russia, Germany, the Netherlands and Belgium. A
similar line will be established in the United States in
2005, and help-lines will be set up in additional
countries soon.
NATIONAL:
Calls from anywhere in Russia (to
the Angel Coalition/TVAC in Moscow):
8-800-200-2400
This toll-free service provides
valuable information for those interested in traveling
abroad to study, work, or for other personal reasons.
Help-line operators provide vital information about the
terms and conditions of work overseas, warn against
fraudulent schemes, and give important tips on what to
do and how to protect one's rights. Additionally, the
help-line enables the Angel Coalition to assist women
and girls who are trapped in trafficking in Europe or
the U.S. to return home and undergo rehabilitation.
Relatives and parents can also initiate broad-based
searches for their loved ones.
The help-line is Russian-language,
and therefore accessible to Russian travelers abroad who
do not know the language of their destination country.
The help-line operates 24 hours a
day. Coached operators and the TVAC staff provide
necessary assistance. We cooperate with domestic and
international law enforcement, as well as Interpol, in
working on actual trafficking cases. We ensure that
victims outside Russia receive assistance by working
with government agencies and NGOs in these countries,
thus making the rescue, on-site rehabilitation, and
return of the victim more efficient.
The Coalition considers the
confidentiality of incoming calls to be highly
important.
REGIONAL RUSSIAN HOTLINES:
There are hot-lines of other NGO's
in the cities of Russia and Countries of CIS for
consultations and help to victims of trafficking.
