Our Why
Our Mission
To provide a long-term safe home where survivors of commercial sexual exploitation receive comprehensive care specific to their needs that includes spiritual, mental and physical healing with access to vocational and educational opportunities.
Our Vision
Survivors of sexual exploitation would live in fearless freedom, walk in Biblical truth, and embrace a sustainable future.
Our Values
Project 2 Restore’s restoration house is a faith-based residential home for women survivors of sexual exploitation. Our goal is to offer hope, a new beginning, and a life-changing relationship with Jesus Christ. During the up to two years survivors are in our care, they are nurtured spiritually, mentally, and physically. Upon graduation, we provide ongoing mentorship and guidance as they grow in their independence through our partnerships with local churches and our community.
Our History
In 2019 the Lord laid the burden of sexual exploitation and trafficking on the hearts of our founder & a small group of prayer warriors in our community. As they dove into research, they asked the question, “where do victims seek refuge and support?” They quickly learned that across the U.S. there is a huge need for services but a very limited number places that actually provide for the needs of victims. As they continued to pray, they realized the Lord was calling them into the ministry of providing a space for survivors to hope and to heal. Now, with a leap of faith, they are following the Lord’s leading.
