Mission Statement

Free2Hope’s mission involves these three goals: (1) To educate the community and increase awareness of human trafficking and sexual-based crimes in Kentucky. (2) To provide programs that equip local businesses and communities to address and prevent human trafficking in their areas. (3) To provide a Women’s Drop-in Center for female victims of domestic violence and sex crimes, including human trafficking; to get help with basic needs, such as finding local resources, and providing a supportive environment for people to heal from traumatic experiences.

Description

Free2Hope Women's Drop-in Center provides a meal, restrooms, relief from the elements, a place to rest, hygiene products, and case management services, but more importantly, it provides community. A community in which, beyond meeting the physical needs of women caught in the cycle of prostitution and human trafficking, mental and emotional needs can also be completed; a community in which relationship is possible. Through those relationships, freedom can be fought for.

We are a Charitable Organization that conducts case management with our women. Throughout the assessment process, we identify resources. We can provide many services, such as: help with accessing medical services, obtaining social security/ disability benefits, completing applications for maternity housing, drug program placement, domestic violence housing, referrals for mental health services, advocacy, resume preparation, and applications for FAFSA (federally funded financial aid).
