Kwenuha Women’s Association (KWA) is a faith-based nonprofit organization in Livingstone, Zambia, committed to supporting women impacted by human trafficking and commercial sex work. With extremely high unemployment rates and widespread poverty in the region, many women and young girls turn to transactional sex as a means of survival—leaving them vulnerable to HIV, violence, and exploitation. KWA provides a holistic pathway to safety and independence through trauma-informed shelter, vocational training, farming, life skills development, and small business support.
Night Watch Outreach is one of KWA’s key outreach efforts. The team operates directly in bars, nightclubs, and truck stops to reach women who are currently involved in sex work. Outreach workers conduct “night fishing trips”, meeting women where they are, offering soft rescues, and inviting them into KWA’s broader programs. These visits are a critical first step toward rehabilitation, focused on trust-building, nonjudgmental engagement, and providing real alternatives.
