PAVE

Providing Avenues for Victim Empowerment

An innovative platform that facilitates best practices and creates a single screening, assessment, and referral process for victims of trafficking.

From screening through next steps, PAVE provides the tools to improve identification and response as a collaborative community. We can tailor PAVE to work within the context of each agency’s reporting and referral process. The platform consists of five customizable building blocks organizations can pick and choose from based on their needs.

The Building Blocks of PAVE

1. Screening Tools

Houses the initial screening & in-depth assessment allowing users to identify those at risk of being trafficked and to make the final determination that trafficking has occurred.

Initial Screening

Agencies likely to come in contact with victims (ex: hospitals, probation) use the initial screening tool to identify potential trafficking victims.

In-Depth Assessment

Trauma-informed professionals trained on trafficking leverage the in-depth assessment to determine whether and how the situation meets the definition of trafficking.

2. Case Management System

Includes a true case management system so users can manage their cases from intake to identification and response.

3. Collaboration Software for Referral-Making

Facilitates reporting and referral-making ensuring that victim/survivors are offered the help they need wherever they are, and contains a directory of victim services, best practices, & training materials so users know how to best serve victim/survivors and where else they can receive services.

This includes systematizing policies around information sharing, confidentiality, referrals, and mandatory reporting.

Responding

When the initial tool says that an individual is high-risk, we recommend a referral to a service provider to provide services & conduct an in-depth assessment. PAVE stores up-to-date information about available community services.

4. Training Platform

User training is embedded within the platform and access is provided during the onboarding process. Custom trainings can be provided upon request.

5. Automated Data & Statistics

Provides aggregate data reports to agency admins allowing agencies to meet reporting requirements with minimal burdens.

This includes data needed for grant reporting.
