  "account": "The Ministry of Gender, Children and Social Protection announced that 1,432 individuals who have been victims of human trafficking have received rehabilitation support as part of the government's response to trafficking and exploitation. Minister Dr Agnes Naa Momo Lartey revealed that 181 victims have also received trauma-informed care at government shelters, while another 69 have been referred for additional assistance.\n\nThe interventions are part of a broader initiative to demonstrate the government's zero-tolerance stance against gender-based violence and exploitation through practical services for survivors. The Ministry has also broadened its support for survivors of domestic violence. According to Dr Lartey, 152 survivors have received counselling, legal, and financial assistance, and a shelter has been established in Accra, with two others supported in the Upper West and Eastern Regions.\n\nDr Lartey urged any survivor of sexual or gender-based violence to reach out to the Orange Support Centre, which is available toll-free at 0800 111 222 or via WhatsApp at 055 1755 7575.",
