Survivor’s are extraordinary, having already shown the will to overcome adversity. They want more for themself than the history from which they come. They have goals and hopes and dreams. Once a pathway is identified to get achieve them, Empower Her Network helps breakdown roadblocks in the way.
The survivors we serve are willful, self-determined, hardworking American born and immigrant survivors of domestic human trafficking and are 18+ years old with legal immigration and work status in the United States.
Having been stripped of basic human rights for years and sometimes decades, the survivors of Empower Her Network face different combinations of intimidating but not insurmountable obstacles: trapped in the minimum wage poverty spiral, facing housing barriers with bad credit or no credit, unable to afford vocational or education opportunities. Empower Her Network funds those tangible needs while curating confidence, igniting hope and establishing focus. These life skills are purposefully held back from trafficked persons and need to be relearned.
