INTERVENTION
The objects of the present life fill the human eye with a false magnification because of their immediacy.
– William Wilberforce
We provide a space to come alongside and support individuals that have the desire to leave the commercial sex industry.
HELP CONTINUE OUR INTERVENTION AND AFTERCARE PROGRAMS
Refuge City
(COSTA RICA)
Refuge City is an outreach program of LFI designed to build community and meet the needs of people working in the sex trade, as well as people that are experiencing homelessness. Since the pandemic, we established a weekly meal program in the heart of La Zona Roja (The Red Light District) serving on average 100 people with a typical Costa Rican breakfast, accompanied by a time of sharing. Sometimes a small gesture like a warm meal, a cup of coffee, or a relief basket, and community are the first steps toward rethinking life outside of the streets.
Survivor Assistance
(All Locations)
A program in which survivors needing immediate assistance with food, shelter, therapy, or advocacy can contact our staff. We will also facilitate their transfer to a program that suits their specific needs.
Entrepreneurship Program
Social entrepreneurship and impact business are part of a fast-growing movement that applies business tools to find sustainable solutions to neglected problems at all levels of society. Through workshops on entrepreneurship, leadership, and skills development, attendees receive training and opportunity from other leaders and entrepreneurs.
Refuge City
(USA)
A monthly gathering for women at a Kentucky detention center. We provide worship, Bible stories, and discussion as part of our monthly events, with the objective of bringing hope and understanding even in the most difficult moments of life. This is a unique outreach to assist some of society’s most underserved community members. Providing words of hope and encouragement and guiding the women through faith-based teaching and values.
