“I can't tell you how many times I packed my bags and unpacked them. I didn't know that choosing myself was okay because I was under the control of a trafficker who made everything about himself. That was the hardest choice I ever had to make: to stay here and give myself a fighting chance.”

-L, Naomi’s House Resident

Hope Lives Here.

Every woman who has suffered from commercial sexual exploitation is worthy of freedom, healing, and a fresh start. Our mission at Naomi’s House is to help her find it.

 

In the US alone, tens of thousands of women and girls are sexually trafficked every year. The majority of women Naomi’s House has served report that their exploitation began when they were a minor. Our services address the gap between girls who are exploited as children and women who never got the opportunity to leave. Or heal. Or both.


Women who have been exploited rarely self-identify as victims. It isn’t until the abuse has stopped and they enter a new environment that they are able to understand the severity of their situations. We exist to be that place, where women feel safe to work through the trauma of the past and build a healthy future on their own terms.

 
 

Everything we do is geared toward restoring what has been lost in the evil and violence of trafficking. Through a trauma-informed, holistic approach, our team is helping women heal and achieve hundreds of personal goals. Rooted in the Gospel of Jesus Christ and committed to the full mental, emotional, and spiritual healing of each survivor, we operate under the belief that she is the best advocate for her own care.

 

The Trafficking Crisis

What is commercial sexual exploitation?

Commercial sexual exploitation is human trafficking, forced prostitution, or any act that treats a minor or non-consenting adult like a piece of property that can be taken advantage of sexually. This includes illegal activities as well as any activity that results in the immediate and long-term mental, physical, or emotional harm of victims.

“Jesus said to her, ‘Daughter, your faith has healed you. Go in peace and be freed from your suffering.’” -Mark 5:34
