Why We Exist

Texas ranks #2 in the United States for reports of human trafficking

Over 700 sex trafficking survivors were recovered last year in North Texas

Where do they go once they are recovered?

There are less than 50 openings for therapeutic residential recovery programs across North Texas

As a result, many survivors return to their traffickers.

Our Approach

  • Safety & Stability

  • Comprehensive mental health services 

  • Health, medical, nutritional, and substance abuse support 

  • Core life skills & leadership development

  • Collaborative, short-term, evidenced-based, tailored to each survivor

Need to report a human trafficking case?

If you suspect a trafficking situation, do not put yourself at risk. You can risk harm to yourself and the survivor. Please immediately contact the National Human Trafficking Hotline, a national 24-hour, toll-free, multilingual service. This line is equipped to handle calls from all regions of the United States from a wide range of callers. Call 1-888-373-7888 to report a tip.
