“I have had the privilege of being a part of Safe Passages this year 2020 and I am sooo grateful for such an amazing, intense, life changing experience.This unique one of a kind program has transformed me for life. I am a human trafficking survivor. Through this program I have come face to face with many things in my life and heal from the drama that I went through. I’ve learned and am learning more and more about myself and truly feel ---- that I was meant to be here. Women's Support Network has changed my life forever. The way I feel right now is that I have been given a 2nd chance, that I have hope and that I’m worthy” ~ Safe Passages Participant
