Sarah’s provides housing for survivors of trauma from around the world. Our residents come needing care and dignity, then leave with the tools to rebuild their lives.

We cannot be more grateful for our partnership with Center for Victims of Torture, for supporting our residents with healthy strategies for living in community, and practices for self-care – nurturing healing after their traumatic experiences.

Thank you to Rachel, Miskiya, and Tariro (pictured) for doing this insightful workshop!

To every volunteer who has walked through our doors: thank you. You are the heartbeat of this work.

Once a social worker in a thriving community, when faced with political violence, land seizures, drought, and economic collapse, she had to make the impossible choice to leave her home. Ava endured a month-long walk filled with detentions, assaults, and worse. She ran out of money and food. She doesn’t know how she made it alive.

At Sarah’s, Ava found safety, stability, and room to rebuild.

She secured work as a nursing assistant and, thanks to Sarah’s scholarship fund, began nursing courses that brought her closer to the career she once dreamed of. Today, Ava is thriving; her growing confidence and strong grades reflect the healing power of stability, community, and the generosity of donors who make this all possible.

Your support helps women like Ava reclaim their futures. Learn more how you can get involved at: https://www.accolamn.org/meet-the-moment

Learning In Style School is opening their doors to share with you how the programs of Accola are advocating for the dignity and well-being of every person we serve, and more importantly, how you can get involved.

We’ll be joined by guest speaker, Amy Smith, who serves as Social Work Director and clinical faculty member at the University of St. Thomas‘s Interprofessional Center for Counseling and Legal Services.
