REST Shelter and REST House
Seattle, Washington
****CHALLENGE COMPLETED****
“Our goal is simple -- freedom, safety, and hope to women & girls exploited by the sex trade.”
REST: Real Escape from the Sex Trade was founded in 2009 by a small team of women with experience dealing with troubled youth and sexual abuse issues. In 2012, REST opened a long-term residential home for young women ages 18-24. Today, REST is an institution in the Seattle area for excellent outreach, restoration, and care of girls who are caught in the sex trade. Through holistic continuum of care (prevention, intervention, and aftercare), REST serves those who are at-risk, actively in, and those taking steps towards exiting a life of sexual exploitation. “Our desire is to see Washington become hostile to traffickers and to work ourselves out of a job.”
