Family Support CAre

General Description

Statistics show that the majority of trafficked and exploited individuals are introduced at a young age by a close family member or friend. This makes it extremely difficult for women to leave their children in pursuit of their own healing and recovery. Our Family Support Care provides an opportunity for women to overcome their trauma alongside their children and to break the generational cycles of abuse, addiction, and pain.
