Services for Survivors of Torture
93.604
The Office of Refugee Resettlement (ORR) provides funding to the Services for Survivors of Torture Program which includes Direct Services for Survivors of Torture (DS SOT) program and Technical Assistance to Survivors of Torture program (TA SOT) program. The aim of the DS SOT program is to help survivors and their families overcome the severe, pervasive, and long-lasting effects of torture and achieve sustained physical, social, emotional, and economic well-being. To achieve this aim, ORR seeks to 1) increase survivors' access to and engagement with effective, holistic, strengths-based, trauma-informed services; and 2) to maintain and grow a strong and sustainable national network of culturally responsive service providers. The aim of the TA SOT program is to fund a healing torture and trauma initiative that includes 1) a national center to coordinate education, training, and research efforts, and 2) a strong and sustainable national network of organizations serving survivors of torture.
