The project will directly provide evidence of effective programming and policy for Vietnam's national policy and program efforts to improve the return and reintegration of trafficked women. The project's purpose is to provide a comprehensive model of return and reintegration in the South by providing an integrated and unified array of communications, vocational training, psychosocial and physical care, and guidance on employment opportunities, so that trafficked women are effectively reintegrated and are provided opportunities in a safe and supportive environment.

The goal of the project is to contribute to the implementation of the National Plan of Action and to ensure that the government agencies tasked with return and reintegration, especially Ministry of Labour, Invalids, and Social Affairs (MOLISA), are able to use the successful experience of other organizations when developing and implementing return and reintegration programs.

The project also mainstreams gender equality.
