How Beloved Atlanta is growing a community of restoration for women who have been commercially sexually exploited:

  • RESTORATION PROGRAM

    We believe that true freedom is only found through Christ. We identify and address each woman’s trauma by providing counseling, DBT, case management, and therapeutic groups. Through this we are able to see growth and transformation.

    – Our location in the city allows our residents to utilize the city’s resources, learn to overcome triggers, and live in a community of accountability during and following their participation in the program.

  • EDUCATION & EMPLOYMENT

    An individual action plan is created for each resident to assist in accomplishing her educational and employment goals. This includes GED programs, tutoring, continuing education, job readiness training, and assistance with job placement.

  • HOUSING PLACEMENT

    As a resident prepares to transition out of the BeLoved Home, we will assist her in finding affordable and healthy housing. Residents may also qualify for assistance with deposit and first months rent.
