    HOW CAN I JOIN IN?

    Hidden Voices and the principles behind it are not complicated, but they do require some training, and careful thought. The training takes two days and can be run as a residential, or over a couple of weekends.

    WHAT IS HIDDEN VOICES?

    Hidden voices is a new resource created by Mosaic Creative for The Clewer Initiative. It’s based on the principles of an existing resource called Stories on the Street, and it’s designed to help churches and communities respond to modern slavery.

    Some people might ask, what can churches and communities do about modern slavery? The truth is local people are key to solving this puzzle. For starters they can spot the signs of modern slavery and help the police to find victims. They can prevent vulnerable people they work with, like the homeless, from being trafficked or exploited. And they can support the survivors of modern slavery, and help them to overcome the trauma they have experienced.

    STORIES FROM HIDDEN VOICES

    Hidden Voices is written in three modules: Setting the scene for action, Detection and Prevention. All of the modules include Biblical reflections and practical tools and activities to help churches work alongside their community. There are also case studies that help people to see how they might already be coming across modern slavery without knowing it. We hope that churches who do the Hidden Voices resource will feel inspired and ready to start a project of their own by the end. They might not have all the answers, but they will certainly know where to start.
