PROBLEM
At the beginning of 2012 - the United States had less than 100 beds were dedicated to the recovery of child victims of domestic sex trafficking. Due to the lack of available supportive housing, children who are rescued from human sex trafficking often go into juvenile detention centers where the belief is again reinforced the children themselves are somehow responsible for their situation. With such limited comprehensive services available for sex trafficking victims most of these children have no where to go and consequently are released often to return to the very hands of their traffickers.
Regretfully, there are yet no safe houses dedicated to helping young boys recover, nor girls who have been rescued with infant children. Additionally, many trafficking victims will often require help with their addictions, and yet none of the available recovery centers in this country have duel programs and therefore will not shelter a child when addicted to drugs.
SOLUTION
For the Sake of One's primary purpose are Isaiah's Houses - child sex trafficking safe homes located in the United States. A place of healing where children who have been victimized can receive the love and specialized services they desperately need and deserve.
Isaiah's House is open to all children, both girls and boys, ages 11 to 17. Isaiah's House is a long term care facility, not a shelter. Each child is provided love, medical services, extensive counseling, schooling and life skills to prepare their paths for a much brighter tomorrow.
Counseling
At Isaiah’s House all share the common tragedy of sex trafficking and in an atmosphere of healing, each child is provided one on one and group therapy by loving and licensed child counselors. Regardless of issues to conquer, we work with each child's needs.
Education
Most child victims of sex trafficking will need much help to complete their education. Isaiah’s house has an on-site school with dedicated teachers using individually tailored study plans. We believe each child must have both goals and abilities when they leave Isaiah's House. Be it college or life skills - our goal is to provide the skill sets required for these children to become self sufficient.
Mentoring
Upon arrival most victims of child sex trafficking will trust no one but themselves. Our mentoring program rebuilds trust and self esteem while cultivating new social skills within healthy love-based relationships.
We Need Your Support
We do not take any government funding and we do not charge for any of our programs. The cost to provide these services is great; however, the value of one transformed life is priceless. Please consider sowing financial seeds into these children's lives.
Your prayers and your financial support are both needed and appreciated.
... where nightmares end and dreams come alive

He has sent me to tell those who mourn that the time of the Lord’s favor has come, and with it, the day of God’s anger against their enemies.
To all who mourn in Israel, He will give a crown of beauty for ashes, a joyous blessing instead of mourning, festive praise instead of despair. In their righteousness, they will be like great oaks that the Lord has planted for his own glory.
