Real Change for Survivors
Bring to life Biblically based courses for survivors of exploitation so they can rebuild identity, faith, and community.
“I remember thinking ‘He sees me’—not who I pretend to be, not the mask I wear—He sees the bruises, the addiction, the rage, the fear, the silence and still He says, ‘I do not condemn you.’
Survivors repeatedly tell us that encountering God’s truth changes everything. Over the past three years, our research at the Institute for Survivor Care confirms many survivors are seeking faith‑based support and resources to rebuild identity and belong to a loving community.
