Safe House

Therapeutic Group Home for Minor Girls

Former head Northeast Ohio Rescue and Restore Coalition

"The need for residential beds for trafficked girls is dire."

Imagine being a young girl who has who endured horrible physical and emotional abuse, who has no concept of a normal teenager's life.

She needs a place to go...a place where she can heal and learn to life she was meant to before it was taken away.

Gracehaven stands in the gap with them with a residential facility -- the longest-serving, licensed residential group home for sex-trafficked minors in Ohio.

While at the Campus

Our Program

The Gracehaven campus has multiple group homes on site, with a capacity to serve 12 females. While placed in our care, youth receive trauma-informed and responsive care 24/7. We also provide comprehensive medical care, trauma counseling, wraparound case management services, specialized education services, independent living skills instruction and prevention education. We tailor the treatment plan to meet the needs and strengths of the individual youth. Also, because the family is impacted as well, we provide family-engagement and support services alongside our residential care.

Help Girls Feel Welcome

Good news! During 2026 we will be opening more rooms for more girls. Join us in providing dignity and a renewed life by creating a safe and welcoming new place for them to call home.

Will you consider helping to furnish and equip these new living spaces? We have created an Amazon Wish List that includes everything we need -- a vitual "house warming party."

Please know that this is not just a gift...it's an investment in the future of young people whose hope for a brighter future has been altered by the evils of human trafficking and exploitation. Thank you!

Family Engagement Services

For All Members of the Family

While working with exploited teens is our passion, we also see the need to involve the family who have been negatively impacted as well.

We seek to equip the whole family with relevant skills. For example, we’ll help the client learn to practice coping skills, and we'll help the adults to employ discipline that works for the youth and family.

We listen, support and guide the family during some of their most heart-wrenching experiences. We interface with other case workers and agency supports. We are committed to seeking the best path forward for the teen and family.
