Letter from the CEO: Fall 2024

We are in a season at The WellHouse of offering more opportunities for the adult residents who bravely seek to have their lives restored.  Faith remains the foundation as we move forward with a new level of programming that will more carefully identify individualized needs including the fact that some need more time to reach certain levels and others need less. Time restraints will be removed as our staff, partners, and volunteers pour into survivors with the goal of guiding them to an ending filled with moments of which they can be proud and can excel.

I often get asked what our success rate is like at The WellHouse. This is such a difficult question to answer! Who or what defines success? In the realm of residential living offering an array of pertinent services, does success come when boxes are checked indicating a year of programming completed, or is it as simple as a survivor remaining even one night on our campus escaping multiple sexual assaults that she would have typically experienced out in the world?

It was an incredible 2023!  As we were focused on The WellHouse mission that includes honoring God as we assist in the recovery of sex trafficking victims and offer meaningful restoration services, we were continually humbled at God’s amazing protection and provision. There is simply no other explanation! This year, more than ever, we have come to realize that all of us are better than one of us.

Not only is The WellHouse connected to those who can provide adequate training, we are willing to be the link, provide training, and mentor. Our desire is that we make and receive referrals with those in whom we can have confidence that we are likeminded, as we serve a population of people who have put their trust in us to stand in the gap for them as they bravely walk the journey of healing.

There are countless articles and research on the topic of Trauma Informed Care. How it is defined often depends on whose perspective is being given. A residential living setting such as The WellHouse provides a unique perspective since we are literally living and interacting daily (24 hours per day actually) with those who have experienced severe complex trauma, often since childhood.

And now, as all the efforts have given way to true service for the most vulnerable among us who have endured unspeakable horrors, we see the need to expand the Team. The average age of WellHouse Child youth is 13-14, meaning their abuse likely began much earlier, and the incidents of familial trafficking (family members trafficking the child) bears out the 50% rate of occurrence found by recent studies.

Letter from the CEO - End of Year Recap

2022! The 12th year since The WellHouse was founded!

We enter it asking God to prepare our hearts for this year, while also petitioning Him for protection from danger, destruction, and division, and for allowing us to see and experience Deliverance. Deliverance for survivors who have divinely been sent to The WellHouse as well as Deliverance for all involved who are daily faced with the warfare of the enemy.

WellHouse Child definitely dominates our workload these days as we anticipate the completion of the home this month! Our hearts are full and prayers are abundant as we look toward the day when youth who have witnessed and experienced some of the worst atrocities of mankind find safety and healing in an environment of love! We believe there are young girls right now hoping --and some even begging God--to into the hands of someone to protect them.
