OUR BLOG
Our blog features the stories from participants here at SafeHope Home who wanted to share her story with you. The blogs will be anonymous to protect their identities, all the other details of their journeys will be left as is. We hope that through this blog, you will gain insight into the issue of human trafficking that is happening here in Canada and that you’ll be encouraged to see that change, though a long journey, is possible.
