Diversity & Inclusion: The Foundation to Making Freedom Real
Restore's mission is to make freedom real for survivors of trafficking in the United States. Our vision is a world free from trafficking. For every survivor, a life of hope, restoration, and flourishing. To do that, we desire a staff team that's more representative of the survivors we serve — almost all of whom are Black, Latina, and/or immigrants. Applicants from these underrepresented communities are strongly encouraged to apply. We especially welcome applicants who are survivors of trafficking, gender-based violence, intimate-partner violence, and/or sexual assault.
