How you can help a survivor rebuild their life.

Restoring Broken Lives  –  An Overview of Growth Groups

In addition to rescue, providing a safe home and vocational training, there needs to be a well thought out strategy to help the girls rebuild their lives internally. Without a systematic, logical progression in the restoration process, they cannot reclaim what was destroyed by their trauma or find emotional healing.

What was destroyed by the trafficking?

  • Their ability to trust, both people and God
  • An accurate view of God, Himself
  • An accurate view of themselves
  • Hope is destroyed thus their view of the future is distorted
  • Their sense of safety
  • Their will and the power of choice is compromised
  • The feeling of what it means to be alive and to be human
  • The normal stages of emotional growth and development
  • Their sense of stability is replaced with an often well hidden fear and inner confusion
  • The desire to live
  • Their view of what real love is

Suggested outline for weekly Growth Groups:

  1. Getting to Know the Father – 8 week study
  2. This Changes Everything: Learning How to Trust God – 12 week study
  3. Secrets: Finally Being Whole Again – 10 week study
  4. Shattered: Healing from the Inside Out – 10 week study
