Florida's Leading 24/7 Network of Care for Survivors of Sex Trafficking

Open Doors Outreach Network: What Makes Us Unique

Our Promising Practices of Care

Survivor-Centered

In an inclusive and non-judgmental environment, survivors are empowered to be active participants in their wellness care through a strength-based approach. Our teams support them, believe them and respect their decisions.

Trauma-Responsive

We understand the physical and psychological impacts of trauma, and apply techniques, policies and services congruent with those needs and each survivor’s unique lived experiences.

Team Approach

Survivors are supported by a team of professionals, including Survivor-Mentors, Regional Advocates, Victim Service Coordinators, and Clinicians who work together to create appropriate, individualized wellness plans.

Funding Follows the Victim

With this highly mobile population, our teams are often able to continue to serve survivors as they move throughout many Florida regions.

Backbone Support

This is the “special sauce” of our model. As the backbone, Voices for Florida mobilizes resources to plug service gaps, advances training and education and monitors evaluation and outcome measures to ensure successful outcomes for survivors.

Testimonials

Success Story

Danielle was being sold to men for sex by her own mother. After telling teachers what was happening, she was referred to Open Doors by DCF.

A Top Need for Victims is Housing

As the backbone organization for Open Doors, Voices is working hard to fulfill this need. Survivors served through Open Doors  have access to transitional housing assistance, thanks to a three-year grant from the U.S Department of Justice.
