About:
Thousands of women are sold for sex every day in NYC, in every neighborhood of every borough. Restore is working to end it and to make freedom real for survivors. We find women who have been trafficked and provide wrap-around services, including counseling, housing, and safe jobs. We empower each survivor to thrive in her community and ultimately experience sustained freedom--and we have the data to prove it.
Mission
To end sex trafficking in New York and restore the well-being and independence of foreign-national survivors.
Our Partnership
Mobilizing Volunteers
Our volunteers at the safehouse build friendships with residents by gathering for meals and special events, like outings to the movies, and makeover and spa nights.
Making Grants To Fund Programs
Our grants support rent and food costs for Restore's safehouse. It is the first long-term transitional safehouse in the Northeast dedicated to foreign-born survivors of sex trafficking.
Training And Consulting
Restore NYC participated in workshops focused on outcome measurement and tracking program effectiveness, assisting them to tailor their "Restored Life Outcomes Matrix" to the safehouse program.
