Enhanced Employment Plan
Peace Promise, in partnership with our sister companies, Good Ground Coffee Company and Soaps by Survivors, offers survivors an Enhanced Employment Plan (EEP) to facilitate job and life skills training side by side with their employment. The goal of the EEP is to help survivors create a life of financial independence and personal well-being by offering support designed to address vulnerabilities and build strength in the areas of education, interpersonal communication and conflict resolution, and life skills. Additionally, the EEP offers a stipend, beyond the hourly wage, for completing the EEP goals.
Educational Team
We believe that some of the most essential work that we do is educating others about the realities of trafficking, something that is often misrepresented in the media. As a result, it often exists in plain sight and goes undetected, even by those experiencing it. We share our personal knowledge from working with survivors since 2008 and updated research on the larger problem with healthcare professionals, churches, groups, schools, and other community partners.

Soul Sisters Survivor-Led Support Group
Supporting the mental health and healing journey of our survivors is important and we offer this in a variety of ways: however, an additional resource unique to Peace Promise is a survivor-led support group, led by our Survivor Advocate. This group allows survivors a space to process their unique experience and work towards healing with others who have lived through it and understand the challenges survivors face.
At the Well
At the Well is an outreach of Peace Promise that works in partnership with local organizations where exploited women may frequent. This volunteer team is trained to bring the relationship building skills needed to not only identify but also gain trust of survivors that may otherwise be overlooked by society so we can offer them the path to freedom from exploitation.
Care Team
Desmond Tutu once said: “There comes a point where we need to stop just pulling people out of the river. We need to go upstream and find out why they’re falling in.” Our devoted Care Team of trained and trauma-informed staff and volunteers work hard to do both of these things for our survivors. We care for immediate needs to help survivors to untangle the chains that bind them while also helping them work towards sustainable solutions for freedom. This can include anything from attending doctors’ appointments with a survivor, to helping them secure housing, to providing emergency childcare, to helping a survivor out of an unsafe situation, to helping a survivor get a driver’s license. This list barely scratches the surface. We want our survivors to be able to focus their energy on healing and learning to live a life of freedom, and our Care Team partners with them to ensure that they can do just that.
