Glory House: 2nd Annual Fashion for Freedom Show

The Reason for Fashion for Freedom

We are honored to host our 2nd Annual Fashion for Freedom show. Through this event, we plan to raise funds to continue providing the necessary services to survivors of human trafficking. Such as trauma therapy, counseling, medical care, life skills, education, and financial assistance. These services are made possible because of your generous giving.

In addition, we plan to meet once again the critical need for a long-term home in South Florida. Glory House understands the value of a long-term residential home. During the 4 years, we had a home, we observed that providing survivors with a safe place to live and a supportive community was imperative to their healing and restoration. Not worrying about their basic needs, allows survivors to focus on improving other aspects of their lives.

2023 FNUSA Anti-Trafficking Conference

2023 FNUSA Anti-Trafficking Conference

Calling In: Centering Survivors & Impacted Communities

The anti-trafficking field has long struggled with creating spaces that meaningfully center survivors and impacted communities. Organizations in the field are passionate but sometimes disconnected from the communities most impacted. The call for equity by those with lived expertise and within marginalized communities has been heard. As a field, we have the responsibility and opportunity to call-in survivors and impacted communities by centering them in every aspect of the work. We are responsible for collaborating with our partners and prioritize accountability when their work is causing harm. And we are responsible for accepting the call ourselves in reviewing, reflecting, and transforming our work to be equitable in practice. This intentional shift is a critical step in becoming a movement that creates long-lasting change for those most impacted.

Shared Hope Awareness Webinar Series: Sextortion & Exploitation

This presentation will look at a wide variety of real-life cases of sextortion, social media exploitation, CSAM and how some of the cases lead to sex trafficking, sexual assault, missing and runaway victims, murder, and suicide.  While these are hard cases to look at it is critical information in understanding the variations of how predators operate, and how the victim responds.  Most important we will look at what to do and what not to do if a young person is being exploited.  We will examine behavioral indicators that might suggest the need for intervention.

The girls have received thousands of therapeutic services to help them begin to heal, life skills classes and education assistance to get them back on track as they work to achieve their goals, and recreational outings where they could just enjoy being a child!

We hope you will join us to celebrate the many success stories, exciting program updates, and progress reports on the lives that we are changing together.
