The development of this organization has been amazing. The dedicated professionals involved have created awareness of the depth of sex trafficking on many levels of the community to thousands of people. The core goal to build a home to restore the lives of the domestic minor survivors of this crime has raised a response from people who want to support this effort in many ways.
