Results: In the US, tens of thousands of women are victims of human trafficking each year. According to the Montana Attorney General's Office, human trafficking occurs in Montana. The number of cases tracked by the Montana Department of Justice increased from 7 in 2015 to 68 in 2021, an increase of 871 percent. (https://dojmt.gov/agooffice/human-trafficking/)
After a life of trafficking, few survivors receive emergency shelter placement and long-term residential care, resulting in high rates of re-victimization.
HER Campaign’s mission is to help HER (survivors of human trafficking) heal, grow, and find purpose. We do this through providing residential programs and intentional community living for survivors. HER Campaign supports recovery and prevents re-victimization through a safe house, emergency shelter, long-term recovery program, and transitional living program.
SAFE HOUSE | 3-5 Days
We provide crisis intervention, basic needs, and resource assessment in an immediate short-term shelter for trafficking victims.
EMERGENCY SHELTER | 2-3 Months
There is a gap between rescue and long-term residential care. We provide essential services such a safe shelter, food, a bed, an 8-week program that includes therapy, mental health assessments, case management, partnership for medical care and stabilization, and long-term residential placement.
LONG-TERM RECOVERY PROGRAM | 1 Year
We offer safe, long-term residential care through trained and equipped host families. This includes wrap-around resources for survivors to continue their healing journey.
TRANSITIONAL LIVING | 2 Years
Women reintegrate into society and work toward economic independence while receiving counseling, employment opportunities, financial planning, housing assistance, and more.
