Welcome to Worthwhile Wear

A BIT ABOUT US
Worthwhile Wear exists to end modern-day slavery, which includes sex and labor trafficking. We launched our first program in India in 2012 when we partnered with local organizations to offer vocational training to survivors of sex trafficking. 

But before too long, we discovered that human trafficking, or forced prostitution, is a local problem too. Our challenge was discovering what unmet needs existed and deciding how we could have an impact. We soon learned that one of the greatest needs was long-term residential housing and trauma therapy for women escaping from human trafficking.

In response, we opened The Well, a safe home for survivors, along with its companion Education and Counseling Center. Women over age 18 can live at The Well for up to two years and receive services such as in-depth trauma counseling, education, vocational training, and art therapy. Volunteers and donors provide the resources required to run The Well, while our thrift store supplies job training and sustainable income.
