Engedi Refuge helps women find hope and is changing lives.

“Engedi Refuge saved my life. It is a literal refuge from the fugitive existence that sexual exploitation breeds. I have been wholly embraced, supported, and understood in a way that I have never experienced. I am provided with physical and emotional safety in a beautiful home, and I am given the opportunity to cultivate my strengths and talents, learn valuable life skills, receive therapy, chemical dependency counseling, and participate in recreational activities at the Learning Center.”

“I am a survivor of sexual exploitation and human trafficking. Before I came to Engedi Refuge, I lived in a constant state of fear, danger, and isolation. I had no shelter or resources geared toward the issues unique to victims of human trafficking. I was homeless, jobless, and hopeless.”

— Emelia*

“Nothing seemed to help until Engedi, but transformation in me is finally taking place. The love, grace, education, and structure have truly been exactly what I needed. I am finally on the path to full restoration.”  

— Wanda*

“Engedi stood out from the other programs I have experienced because they cared for my whole person, not just my addiction. Today I have experienced healing in every part of my life. My life is so full. I am blessed.”
