In Southeast Asia, services for survivors of human trafficking have historically been centralized within shelter programs. Minimal research has, however, been conducted regarding trafficking-specific shelters, particularly research that highlights the perspectives of survivors themselves. This manuscript presents the perspectives of survivors of human trafficking and sexual exploitation on their own experiences pertaining to trafficking-specific shelter services. We analyzed data from the Butterfly longitudinal research (BLR) study, a 10-year longitudinal study exploring the lives, trajectories, and viewpoints of survivors of human trafficking and sexual exploitation in Cambodia. We analyzed 236 in-depth interviews and narrative summaries of interviews conducted between 2011 and 2016 using an interpretive phenomenological approach (n = 79). Four themes were identified: feeling privileged to live in a shelter; lacking freedom and feeling imprisoned by rules; limited engagement with family; and mixed experiences with counseling. Findings inform critical recommendations for implementing trauma-informed care and strengthening mental health services for survivors, including services provided within shelter programs and within the anti-human trafficking movement more broadly.

在东南亚，向人口贩运幸存者提供的服务历来一直集中在住房计划之内。但是，对专门针对贩运的庇护所进行的研究很少，特别是着重于幸存者本身观点的研究。这份手稿介绍了人口贩运和性剥削幸存者在与人口贩运相关的庇护服务有关的自身经验中的观点。我们分析了蝴蝶纵向研究（BLR）研究的数据，该研究历时10年，探讨了柬埔寨人口贩运和性剥削幸存者的生活，轨迹和观点。我们采用解释现象学方法分析了2011年至2016年之间进行的236次深度访谈和访谈叙事总结（n  = 79）。确定了四个主题：感觉有幸住在庇护所；缺乏自由和被规则监禁的感觉；与家人的参与度有限；以及在咨询方面的混杂经历。调查结果为执行创伤知情护理和增强幸存者心理健康服务（包括住房计划内和更广泛的反人口贩运运动中提供的服务）提供了重要建议。
