The brothels in India are overflowing with women and children trapped in untenable situations.

Many are sold into the work by a brother or aunt, or even a parent.  When they first arrive, they are beaten and raped as prisoners.  Once broken, they have more freedom but live in fear.  Each one precious soul is caught in a seemingly unending hell.  Many young girls cut themselves, and suicide is not uncommon.

But GOD is working - the Gospel is being shared, bibles provided, sewing classes thrive, literacy is being taught, and women and children are being helped out of the brothels to safety and a new life.

This lush garden setting is where many survivors of sex trafficking, and vulnerable children, find a loving home in a healing environment.  It is a safe home, where they are provided with schooling, vocational training, and rehabilitation.  The love of Christ is evident in the relationships formed between the residents of all ages.

After midnight in the capital of Ethiopia, there are many hundreds of young girls on the street, in bars, or working as call girls.  Many are wanting to escape the hell they are living.   

Samaritan House is a safe house where survivors of sex trafficking find freedom and healing through Christ.  They are empowered through  rehabilitation programs, therapy, and trauma-counseling.  Many obtain an education, take vocational classes, and learn a trade onsite, such as crafting leather goods and making scarves and hats. 

Open Door Foundation is the only emergency shelter for human trafficking victims since 2013. During this time, they have served more than 438 victims - women, children, and men. Currently the shelter hosts 12 women and 7 children as residents and Open Door is assisting 100+ individuals in the non-resident program. At any time, first responders can call on Open Door to provide emergency shelter, necessities such as clothing, shoes, and toiletries, medical, counselling services, treatment programs, and initial legal fees to take on the case.

This is a sanctuary for young survivors of human trafficking rescued in Southern Arizona.  The ranch setting and loving staff provide a safe, home-style environment where the girls can find hope and healing from the trauma associated with sexual exploitation.  They enjoy true freedom and healing through Christ Jesus, and equine therapy, counseling, education, and job training are integral elements of their recovery.
