What We Do

Our projects

Esthers Rising is currently in the process of raising funds to build our residential restorative care home. We are also excited to announce the creation of our Free23 program!

Education

We believe that the only way human trafficking will ever end is if everyone is aware of the signs. It currently takes place in every country and every state. It’s right in our back yards and most of the time we have no idea. Please contact us if your church or organization would be willing to have us speak to spread awareness.

Long-Term Healing

The goal of Esthers Rising is to see child survivors nurtured through the process of healing from the point of rescue to thriving survivors. We plan to do this through a three-phase program.

Free23

Free23 is a program of Esthers Rising providing restorative care services for adolescent girls who are at risk for or have experienced sexual exploitation or sex trafficking.

What does Free23 mean?

Free23 refers to Psalm 23. It is a symbol of God's righteousness and redemption. It is the perfect balance between justice and mercy.

What does it provide?

Our Free23 program provides the following services:
- Trauma counseling
- Group therapy
- Equine therapy
- Art therapy
- Advocacy
- Support services
- Safety planning
- Crisis response
- Skills classes

Rescue

An emergency shelter for girls who are rescued from sex trafficking or sexual exploitation. Here their immediate physical and emotional needs will be met.

Redeem

The Vision for a Home

 
This facility is not just a building; it’s a sanctuary where healing and restoration are at the heart of every detail. Our design emphasizes comfort, security, and a nurturing environment to help survivors aged 12 – 18 rebuild their lives.
 
Key features of this “bungalow” design:
💜Private Spaces: Comfortable single bedrooms & bathrooms designed for privacy and peace.
💜Community Area: Warm, welcoming spaces for group activities and support.
💜House Parent Space: Dedicated zones for a live-in “house mom”, giving a consistent & safe feeling.
💜Rural Setting: Spacious rural setting providing room for safe restoration.
