Serving survivors of human trafficking & commercial sexual exploitation fueled by the love of Christ!
About us
We serve women, men, and children in Houston who have experienced the sex trade. Our hope is to share the love of Christ and help survivors find safety, empowerment, and freedom. Less than 1% of human trafficking victims are identified, and many victims don't even realize they're being trafficked. By serving anyone who has experienced the sex trade, whether or not they are an identified victim of human trafficking, we are eliminating barriers to service and increasing victim identification. We work to identify a survivor on her journey, welcome her into a safe and loving community, and empower her to write the next chapter of her story through our programs.

We were awarded a grant of $5,000 from the Texas Bar Foundation to provide assistance with clients' legal service fees, fees associated with documentation (e.g. ID, birth certificate), and assistance to meet the conditions of parole/probation (e.g. fees associated with outpatient substance abuse programs)! Since its inception in 1965, the Texas Bar Foundation has awarded more than $27 million in grants to law-related programs. Supported by members of the State Bar of Texas, the Texas Bar Foundation is the nation's largest charitably-funded bar foundation.

As part of the Program of Choice session, LNH Class XXIX learned about major sporting events and the social and economic impact they have on the Greater Houston Area. 🏀 The day was led by John Coppins and his team at Harris County - Houston Sports Authority. The class learned about the challenges and opportunities of hosting international sporting events, and what it took to manage the 2023 NCAA Men's Final Four and the 2024 College Football Playoff National Championship. ⚽ The session continued with a behind-the-scenes tour of Shell Energy Stadium which looked beautiful even in the dreary weather. 💙 We finished the day with an impactful presentation from Jennifer Perez, Outreach Specialist at The Landing - Houston. Jennifer shed light on the issue of human trafficking, and the audiences that are most vulnerable to becoming victims. We would like to express our gratitude to the Program of Choice Committee and the staff of Harris County Houston Sports Authority for an informative session. #leadershipnorthhouston #LNH #leadershipdevelopment #houstonsports
