Who We Are + What We Do
WHO ARE WE?
​
Project Mona’s House exists to shed light on the terrible crime of human trafficking, to restore those who have been victimized and prevent it from ever happening again through education, legislation, and Christ's compassion. A result of fulfilling this will be freedom for all people... FOREVER!
OUR VISION
We will see human trafficking outlawed and eradicated in our lifetime.
We will see safe places for women and girls all across the USA.
We will see the day where human bodies will not be seen as commodities.
"Harriet Tubman left the blueprint, we are just following it. We are lighting up the path to freedom... can you see it?"

WE CREATE PROGRAMS THAT
MONA'S HOUSE
Mona's House is designed to help women 18 and older who have been victims of any type of human trafficking. WE ARE MORE THAN A SHELTER! Women entering our PROGRAM are committed to becoming contributing and functioning members of society, rebuilding their lives and possibly assisting other women who may choose freedom one day too. Our 12-24 month program is designed to bring healing to the whole woman-- mind, body, and soul. We've specifically designed our holistic restoration program for women who have been victimized by human trafficking. Below, you'll find the story of one woman's time at Mona's House.
MONA'S OUTREACH
Awareness is the first form of prevention of human trafficking. It's been said that they eye doesn't see what the brain doesn't know. At Project Mona's House we take awareness VERY seriously. Our goal to educate our community is one of our top priorities. We teach online webinars, in-person sessions, and have even created a film called Sold Next Door to show people that trafficking does happen in the USA by allowing two brave women to tell their story. Watch the trailer below.
THE FREETHEM CENTER
The FreeTHEM Center is a Drop-In Center to aid human trafficking survivors as well as at-risk women and children in developing life skills and in receiving services in counseling and support. Some services we provide will remove barriers to make treatment easily accessible to victims and survivors.
The FreeTHEM center allows us to expand the reach of Mona's House in order to benefit more women and children in the WNY area. We will also offer programming which improves life chances of women we serve. Our goal is to also provide services which work to prevent trafficking in women and children through the Young Women's Empowerment Program.
​

THE YOUNG WOMEN'S EMPOWERMENT ACADEMY
The Young Women's Empowerment Academy is our effort to prevent Human Trafficking and other crimes against girls in grades 3th-12th. We work with populations who are classified as being more vulnerable and susceptible to this crime and give them education, skills, entrepreneurship training and a community they can always depend on. We have created our own Empowerment Girl Curriculum and we see lives changed daily. For more information click HERE
