About

Refuge for Women is a 501(c)3 non-profit, faith-based organization providing specialized long-term housing for women who have escaped human trafficking or sexual exploitation. With multiple locations across the U.S., Refuge for Women Chicago (suburbs) offers up to 12 months of safe housing, at no charge to the resident, with around the clock care as clients progress through evidence-based, trauma-informed programming. We strive to help each woman complete the program with a vision for her future, equipped to succeed and sustain a life marked with dignity and hope.

Our mission is to empower sexually exploited women to live a life of freedom through faith-based, residential healing programs.
