Aiding Children in Healing After Sex Trafficking in United States
Our heart is to help children rescued out of human/sex trafficking know and have the life they deserve no matter what they have endured in the past. We know that healing is a process that takes time and with the support and love needed the pain and trauma can become a testimony of something that has been overcome instead of something holding us down. We want to aide in that process and see every child succeed and live life to the fullest.

Founder/President
My life has been filled with highs and lows like many. Some of the lows made me feel hopeless, used, abused and like there was nothing I could do to change my story/life/future. I felt stuck. When Jesus pulled me out, He helped me find healing and a passion to live the life He created me to live. I found joy and hope again! My heart is to help those who have endured things that seem impossible to overcome and help them overcome it by walking side by side with them through the healing process. I want them to have the life and future they were created to have that is healed, whole and filled with joy.
I know that if we carry childhood trauma into our futures it does affect every decision we make from then on. I want to cut that cycle off. The children coming into our homes will heal and be restored as well as given the tools they need to thrive and excel in life.
What the enemy meant for evil God will change and use for good!
For he has said, ‘I will never leave you nor forsake you.’ So we can confidently say, ’The Lord is my helper; I will not fear; what can man do to me?’” Hebrews 13:5b-6
