Research Library


The Institute for Survivor Care conducts and collaborates on research to advance restorative care for victims of trafficking and exploitation, with a primary focus on residential programming. Our studies address critical gaps in the field, including familial trafficking, survivors’ perspectives on faith-based interventions, and the pathways survivors take to exit exploitation.

Our publications are provided free to download and use to support the work of policy makers, advocates, and practitioners. We encourage you to use these resources in your own reports, outreach, and appeals; we simply ask that you cite The Institute for Survivor Care as the source.

If you are a shelter leader and would like to participate in upcoming surveys or have a study you would recommend, please contact Chris Lim clim@instituteforsurvivorcare.org.

Your support ensures research like this continues to inform and equip the field.
