We meet twice a month, every first and third Thursday, at a confidential location. Survivors gather for a hot meal, spiritual support/meditation, self -care and an opportunity to check in and share. Survivors learn about community resources and interview skills to obtain employment. A clothing closet offers interview clothes.
Once a month, we meet survivors on the streets and in motels where they are trafficked to build rapport and make them aware of community resources. We give them self care kits, show them love and compassion and invite them to participate in our biweekly support group.
Redemption House advocates/survivors do presentations in the community — at community groups, schools, prisons and juvenile probation centers, mental health centers, bringing awareness of the effects of human trafficking and sharing our stories of hope and survival.
We do one-on-one interventions with adult and youth trafficking survivors. We meet them, share our stories, hear their stories and build rapport to let them know when they are ready to claim their healthy future, there is continuing support for them. When they are ready, survivors are able to move on to become advocates.
