About Project Jeremiah 29:11
We are nonprofit organization dedicated to raising awareness of the devastating effects human trafficking has on individuals, families, and communities. A variety of methods to increase awareness including film, public service announcements, and a podcast will aim to inform our communities and help in prevention. Outreach programs to identify victims and share information about immediate resources available help to encourage victims to seek further assistance. Our drop-in center, will serve as a welcoming space where survivors can access daily essentials, receive compassionate care, and find out information about our other resources. In our faith based restoration home program, survivors will receive housing, trauma-informed care, medical assistance, GED/ vocational training and life skills development. We empower survivors to heal, regain their self-worth, and build a foundation for a brighter future.

the reality of human trafficking
Slavery Still Exists
Human trafficking is modern-day slavery. It’s the use of force, fraud, or coercion to obtain some form of labor or commercial sex act. And it still exists today:
- 49.6 million people live in slavery worldwide.
- $236 billion is generated by traffickers every year.
Lack of public awareness, limited long-term care for survivors, unfavorable laws, and not enough frontline workers being trained about human trafficking contribute to the problem
- Less than .5% of victims leave their trafficker
- Human trafficking is the fastest growing criminal industry
Since it was created in 2007, the National Human Trafficking Hotline has identified 197,000 victims of human trafficking. Of those identified, most victims were coerced into sex trafficking, and once extracted, often lack trauma-informed therapy, long-term housing to become healed and restored. They also usually have no means to become self-sufficient.
There is a lack of long-term housing with holistic based services for these survivors who escape sexual exploitation and human trafficking. Project Jeremiah 29:11's mission is to help stand in the gap and provided these necessary sevices.
