A Therapeutic Safe Home Campus

A safe place for minor sex trafficking victims to find healing, hope, and purpose.

Our Guiding Strength

Psalm 82:3-4 Vindicate the weak and fatherless; do justice to the afflicted and destitute. Rescue the weak and needy; deliver them out of the hand of the wicked.

How We Got Started

Combat minor sex-trafficking by bringing restoration to those rescued

Our Mission

Bridging Freedom’s mission is to combat minor sex-trafficking by bringing restoration to those rescued and victim prevention to those we reach with our message.

We built Florida’s urgently needed therapeutic safe home campus community to provide long-term, comprehensive care to these victims in a secure environment.

We educate the community and work with partnering organizations to increase awareness about this horrendous issue.

Bridging Freedom Supports US Marshals’ Operation Home for the Holidays

Bridging Freedom was honored to be apart of the US Marshals’ “Operation Home for the Holidays,” where a record breaking 122 children were recovered from the Middle District of Florida just a few weeks ago. It is a growing model of collaboration, that began in Tampa Bay that brings together federal and local law officers, FDLE, DCF, DJJ, Attorney General’s office, hospitals, and nonprofits to not only recover the children, but to provide immediate healthcare services and trauma informed care.

Bridging Freedom was honored to be asked by the US Marshalls to lead the social services and aftercare for the Jacksonville operations at Baptist Hospital/Wolfson Children’s Hospital. When a child was recovered, law-enforcement brought them to the hospital where Bridging Freedom engaged with the child to provide a safe place for them to start their healing journey. Our advocates then worked to make sure each youth was seen, heard and cared for. We provided connection to behavioral health services, emergency care, along with hot showers, meals, new clothes, and essential items for them to begin to feel safe again and to discuss safe placements.

Bridging Freedom is providing therapeutic residential care to several of the recovered children. Thank you for your support for us to continue this important work!
