The Immigrant Council of Ireland is calling for gender-specific legal, housing and psychological supports for survivors of sex trafficking, and has launched a new guide on supporting women who have been trafficked into Ireland for sexual exploitation.

The guide was developed by ASSIST, a European project led by the Immigrant Council, which includes partner agencies from Scotland, Germany, Spain, Italy and Belgium.
