Mission
To provide homes and resources for children who have been recovered from sex trafficking worldwide so they begin their unique journey of healing and be a courageous leader in the global anti-trafficking movement.
Program accomplishments
- A key purpose of CWW is to build homes for victims of sex trafficking so their unique needs are met in a safe, loving, family environment. We refer to these homes as Courage Houses. These houses provide a comprehensive, holistic approach for the mental, physical, emotional, and spiritual needs of these traumatized young victims. We advocate for their rights within the child welfare and juvenile justice systems so they can be free of stereotypes, labels, and undeserved punishment. If necessary, we intervene in unsafe family situations so they can be free of unhealthy generational tendencies and addictions. We equip, encourage, and empower them to face their perpetrator in court, testifying to the torture they endured, so they can be set free from fear, intimidation, and manipulation. We provide tools and services to help rescue them from their own negative thought patterns and emotions. We provide education, therapy, babysitting, mentoring and many more resources to assist in their journey of healing.CWW is a recognized anti-trafficking leader and tireless advocate. In that role we allocate resources to preventing the crime and providing justice for victims.Expenses $621,166
