Mission & Focus Areas
The organization’s stated mission is to equip Christian ministries with the knowledge, skills, tools, and community needed to provide exemplary restorative care to the sexually exploited. Its programs include research and data resources, training for shelter staff and other anti-trafficking professionals, survivor peer-support certification, conferences, webinars, and shelter consultation and coaching.
The 2025 filing says the organization gave unrestricted grants to Christian counter-trafficking organizations that combat human trafficking and/or care for survivors. Among the grantees, Rapha House International says its mission is to end trafficking and sexual abuse of children; Nomi Network says it creates pathways to safe employment for women and girls; and Starfish Project says it provides exploited women with alternative employment and related support. Compassion First describes its work as long-term residential and community-based aftercare for child sex-trafficking survivors, while Life for the Innocent says it partners with communities to support children affected by human trafficking.
Grantmaking
In filing year 2025, the organization reported 13 grants totaling $249,157. Grant amounts ranged from $6,708 to $25,000, with a median of $25,000. Its largest listed grants included $25,000 each to Rapha House International, Nomi Network, Willow International, Starfish Project, Compassion First, Life for the Innocent, El Pozo de Vida, and Hope Mobilization.
The filing states that grant recipients passed an organizational health check conducted by a third party. Grants were unrestricted, so the organization did not require ongoing monitoring of how grant funds were used. Its website describes a separate grant process in which trustees review applicants for organizational health, program quality, survivor-centeredness, strategic fit, and capacity to use funds well; grants are awarded twice yearly through an application process. It also says applicants should demonstrate experienced leadership, sound financial practices, meaningful survivor outcomes, strong governance, and trauma-informed, survivor-centered practices.
