Mission Statement
Street’s Hope/Voluntad provides services designed to support and empower people who have experienced human trafficking. We envision a world where all people can choose the direction of their own lives, free from exploitation. Voluntad Voluntad means the ability to choose the direction of your own life, with freedom and dignity. In order to help you make the changes you want to make, and find the safety you need, we provide the support and resources you need. We are the resource experts, but YOU are the expert of you.
About This Cause
Street's Hope provides different categories of services, all designed to support and empower people who have experienced exploitation through human trafficking (labor or sex) and to educate and empower our community. We understand all the ways being trafficked can tear apart a life - homelessness and lack of housing, unemployment, mental health concerns and substance use impact most survivors at one time or another. Victims aren't alone. Whether they are in crisis and need safety planning, or need help accessing resources, we are here. We have groups to help people learn how to manage all the stresses they might be under. We have individual counseling services, or can help clients find the mental health services needed. We also want to educate our community and raise awareness and compassion about human trafficking. Call us for a training, or to attend an event to talk about this problem. We are here for our community too. The Street's Hope Program provides five different categories of services, all specifically designed to support people who have experienced or are currently experiencing exploitation through human trafficking (forced labor or commercial sex) and the precarious housing, homelessness, unemployment, mental health and substance abuse issues and criminal justice system involvement which accompanies such exploitation. The categories of services are: Category 1: Crisis intervention and support, Category 2: On-site Program, Category 3: Community-based Program, Category 4: Street Outreach, Category 5: Community Education and Awareness. Through the process of rebuilding a sense of self without the shame, grief and self-blame that accompanies this vulnerable population, we assist these people to enter back into the community and the workforce with confidence and self-awareness.
