Restoration #1
You find out through a little bit of research that there are restoration homes for women who have been a part of the life. This is not like any other homeless shelter or halfway house. This is a home focused on bringing restoration to survivors of sex trafficking. You are a little apprehensive of what it will mean to commit to their program, but with little options on the horizon you decide to give it a chance. You find after committing to the program that there are other women who have experienced similar situations as you. This gives you hope and courage to continue through the program and come out on the other side. You now have a stable job and place to yourself. You are on your way to a college degree and, despite daily reminders of your past trauma, you now have tools to deal with those triggers and most importantly, you have hope for the future.
What happens next? Return to the Main Gathering Area. Sadly, this ending is less of a reality for trafficked women, but you can become a part of a community who is working hard to change that.
