We exist to see every person in this world become free. We believe that human rights are not optional and we fight for those who can’t yet fight for themselves.
We empower survivors by helping them adopt a mindset of inner beauty, worth, and strength. We want survivors to know their past isn't anything to be ashamed of. We encourage them to know that there is power and strength in sharing their experiences. We want them to live a life fulfilled in their true identity.
As an organization we provide a safe place for survivors to receive restoration and rehabilitation services needed. As a movement we believe in "I AM", as in "I AM SAFE." This is a declaration for every survivor and ally. Survivors are able to declare their safety with such empowerment, allies are able to declare that they are safe, a safe person to be around and to entrust.
Our desire is to bring restoration and redemption in every aspect of life to these survivors, so they can understand and live a life set apart from their victimization and fully in their purpose. We want them to know their worth and purpose so they can go out into their community and advocate for other survivors who are currently silenced.
