Typical workforce training programs often ask questions like “How have you earned money in the past? What are your skill sets?” Youth who have experienced trafficking, may not know how to respond to such questions or may worry that they will be judged if they answer honestly. Because of our previous relationships, we are able to help youth achieve educational and employment success in a manner that understands their history, respects their achievements, and above all is trauma-informed. Beyond a trauma-informed foundation, our Education and Employment program teaches youth skills such as developing a resume and interviewing which give building blocks for lifelong successful career growth.
