Our community engagement team had a great time sharing resources at Community Service Leaders of America’s Health Fair this past Saturday!

The event focused on providing accessible health education, screenings, and community resources to the North Memphis area.

We are always grateful for the opportunity to connect with community and share about human trafficking!

Pic 1 is how we feel about summer programming 🤩 Pic 11 is how we feel after summer programming 😴

Last Friday, the youth spent the day at FunCity jumping, climbing, zip lining, and having fun together! Experiences like these, especially for young people who have experienced trauma, help build trust and strengthen relationships, while creating space for joy in the healing journey.

A special thank you to one of our lovely board members, Dr. Audrey Elion, for volunteering her time to spend the day hanging out with us! We’re endlessly grateful for you and your support ❤️

Summer programming is here!!! ☀️

On Friday morning, adult survivors joined our team at the Care Center for a Reset & Restore Yoga and Sound Bath session led by Caroline Collins with Know Good and Well.

We focused on gentle movement, grounding ourselves, and listening to our bodies. Our time together offered a space for all of us to slow down and simply be. It was truly a time for healing and restoration!

We’re so grateful for Caroline with know good & well | by caroline collins and her thoughtfulness in creating an accessible and meaningful experience for everyone who attended.

Back in May, our Justice-Involved Survivor Care Coordinator, C’Mon Price, represented Restore Corps at the WTRC Re-Entry Resource Fair in Henning, TN.

While she was there, C’Mon was able to connect women with resources and support as they prepare to transition back in the community after incarceration.

We are grateful for our longstanding partnership with the Women’s Therapeutic Residential Center! In addition to events like this, members of our team also facilitate R.E.N.E.W., a weekly cohort designed for those who have experience exploitation.

We know that successful re-entry is more than just a release date. It requires resources and relationships, and most importantly, a community committed to showing up!

Yesterday, the Restore Corps team took a road trip to Jackson to visit our friends at Scarlet Rope Project! We had the opportunity to tour their space, learn more about their incredible work alongside survivors, and connect about ways we can strengthen our response to human trafficking across West Tennessee through training and education.

Scarlet Rope Project provides holistic, individualized care plans for women in their program. Their approach is rooted in the six principles of Trauma-Informed Care: Safety, Choice, Collaboration, Trustworthiness, Empowerment, and Culture.

We are grateful for partners like Scarlet Rope Project who are dedicated to walking alongside survivors and creating pathways toward healing and hope.

On Wednesday, our team gathered for the official launch of our new client advocacy management system! This swap, which has been months in the making, will strengthen how we walk alongside survivors every day.

Swipe to see how we’re feeling about .direct 🫧

For years, we’ve worked within a system that wasn’t designed for the complexity and nuance of survivor advocacy. Thanks to the incredible team at Vela by Element 74, we now have a platform built by advocates, for advocates.

Vela prioritizes survivor confidentially, while streamlining data collection, reporting, and service tracking. The platform they’ve created reflects the realities of the work we get to be part of and ensures our team can spend more time supporting survivors.

A special thank you to Katie Allaway Hughes, Vela Product Director, for leading this process and facilitating training for our team. We are incredibly grateful for your partnership and for a system that was so thoughtfully designed for organizations like ours.

We’re excited about what this means for the future of our work! Thank you .direct 🫧🥳💕

Happy Birthday Memphis!! 🥳

The most beautiful land in the world turned 207 this past Friday, and members of our team joined over 100 vendors to celebrate at Memphis Hope Fest! We had such a great time speaking with families and partners as we gathered to promote hope, healing, resiliency, and joy.

“Hope is the belief that goals can be achieved, and the motivation to pursue them. It’s not just feeling good; it’s measurable.

Hope is more than a feeling. Hope is an actionable mindset, tied to setting goals, seeing pathways to reach them, and believing in community support to get there. Community members and neighborhoods with higher levels of hope tend to be more resilient, adaptive, and healthier overall.”

Showing up matters!

The first photo in this post shows the feet of our team members doing just that. Showing up for a survivor, who we hadn’t heard from in some time, but who still knew she could call when she needed support.

Sometimes our role is direct advocacy. Sometimes it’s helping navigate difficult systems. Sometimes it’s just our feet in a court room, a familiar face in a room that feels overwhelming and uncertain.

Survivors of human trafficking are often criminalized for actions tied to their exploitation and survival, known as the Victim-Offender Intersect (VOI). It is essential to view the actions and behaviors of human trafficking victim-offenders through the lens of trauma.

Swipe to learn more about VOI and how Restore Corps supports survivors navigating it!

If you’re interested in leveraging your knowledge, expertise, or influence to help bring greater awareness to VOI, we would love to connect with you. There’s a need for these conversations in systems, courtrooms, communities, and professional spaces.
