OUR MISSION
Somos una organización sin fines de lucro que hace que la libertad sea una realidad para los sobrevivientes de la trata en los Estados Unidos.
This realization led to the founding of Restore as a place where survivors could find support and hope. In 2009, the organization opened the East Coast’s first safe transitional home for survivors, integrating essential trauma-informed counseling alongside the shelter.
Over the years, Restore has collaborated with survivors to design programs that meet the greatest needs of women who have been trafficked. As Restore has grown, so has our programming. Our client services work has expanded to include services that survivors point to as most important to reaching their goals of permanent freedom—case management, counseling, housing, and our economic empowerment program, which equips survivors to secure safe employment in the New York City job market.
In 2020, Restore broadened its scope to include domestic survivors of trafficking. By supporting this population, we have evolved to meet the needs that survivors themselves have articulated.
We were honored to be one of two organizations in the United States to receive the 2024 Presidential Award for Combatting Human Trafficking. As we celebrate this achievement, we continue to look ahead. The fight against trafficking requires our continued effort and support. With your help, we continue to work toward a world where every survivor can thrive and embrace hope for their future.
