Statement of Support
At Redemption House of the Bay Area, we want to reaffirm our commitment to supporting all members of our community, especially in these uncertain times. We are aware that Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has begun to carry out broad enforcement actions in the state of California, and we recognize the heightened anxiety and fear this may bring to individuals who may be at risk of detention.
We want to reassure you that our services and support groups are available to all survivors, regardless of immigration status. We are here to provide care, guidance, and assistance to those who need it, with no judgment or discrimination.
We also want to emphasize that your personal information is never shared with anyone outside of our organization. The confidentiality and safety of those who seek our services are our top priorities. No unauthorized individuals are allowed inside our office, ensuring that your privacy and well-being are respected at all times.
At Redemption House, we are a safe space for all. You are not alone, and we stand with you—now and always.
If you need assistance or just someone to talk to, please reach out to us. We are here for you, and we will continue to advocate for and support our community through every challenge.
In solidarity,
Redemption House of the Bay Areayou'd like to show.

Support & Skill Building
Starting January 2025, we’re expanding our support group for survivors to include monthly Skill-Building & Career Workshops! These workshops will be held on the second Friday of every month and will focus on empowering survivors through career-building, coping skills, and practical life strategies to help them thrive.
The workshops will be facilitated by two incredible survivors, Kathryn Roman and Megan Berger, who have been part of our program since 2019 and are now paying it forward. Their lived experiences and dedication make them perfect guides on this journey.
If you're a survivor ready to take the next step, we invite you to join this supportive, empowering community. Let’s build a future where every survivor can thrive!
For more information or to sign up, please contact us directly. We can't wait to see you there!
street outreach
In the past four years, Redemption House of the Bay Area has served 381 women through our street outreach program. From 2021 to 2024, we’ve seen continuous growth in reaching those who need us most. Our outreach is essential to connecting survivors with resources, safety, and support.
This work wouldn’t be possible without the generosity of our community. Donations are crucial in sustaining these efforts and helping more women get the support they need to reclaim their lives. If you'd like to make a difference, please consider donating. Together, we can continue to uplift and support survivors.

Message from redemption house
When Poverty is your pimp, Choice is an illusion
In California, loitering with the intent for commercial sex has been decriminalized, in a step towards legalizing commercial sex, which some are advocates for.
It normalizes and condones exploitation.
It increases demand for trafficking victims.
It undermines efforts to combat sex trafficking.
It promotes gender inequality.
It can lead to increased crime and social problems.
If you want to protect women, an alternative solution is an Equlity Model or Nordic Model approach which has been adopted by several countries, including Sweden, Norway, Iceland, and Canada. This model decriminalizes those who sell sex but criminalizes the buyers and those who facilitate prostitution, such as pimps and brothel owners.
