Many of our clients have never been treated with the dignity and respect that every human being deserves. For some, Breaking Free has been the only safe haven and home they have ever known. It is estimated that as many as 85% of sex-trafficking victims have been molested and/or sold before the age of 18. If you are a survivor and need assistance please e-mail us at breakingfree@breakingfree.net .

Testimonies from our clients:
Joy Friedman, Women's Program Manager
“Breaking Free took me in when no one else would help me. I don’t think I’d be alive today without their help. I was at a crossroads…..Vednita held a spot for me when I had nowhere else to go. I was homeless and being pimped out on the streets. Coming to Breaking Free has changed my life and I now advocate for other women. I’m a role model for them and proof that there is a way out”.
Brittany- Alumni
"I never wanted to be a prostitute. I thank God every day that I am alive and I pray that God will keep me safe and let me overcome my past and become a survivor".
Judy- Alumni & Group Facilitator
"Today I wouldn’t change my life for anything. Prostitution was just a portion of it. Today, I choose to live. I am living, and I’m also saving lives. Breaking Free works because people here understand one another and help one another.Being able to sit and talk with people and to tell my story gives me a far greater high than any drug or any man ever did."
