FAIR Girls' Vida Home is the first-ever safe, empowering, transitional home in DC exclusively for 18-28 year old female-identifying survivors of human trafficking or commercial sexual exploitation. Every survivor actively collaborates with staff to meet their individual goals while accessing food, clothing, medical support, life-skills and job-readiness training, and other resources. A drop-in center serves as a similar daytime respite for survivors, and a 24/7 lifeline offers immediate emotional support while connecting survivors with life-saving services. FAIR Girls also addresses the cycle of youth victimization, criminalization, and incarceration by intervening when youth first become engaged in the juvenile justice system. Prevention education and advocacy efforts (both local and national) are key. FAIR Girls centers the needs of survivors in everything it does, ending human trafficking one life at a time.
