Aftercare

Restoring Broken Lives

In addition to tangible helps and resources, there needs to be a well thought out strategy to help survivors 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 discipleship:

  • Getting to Know the Father – 8-week study
  • This Changes Everything: Learning How to Trust God – 12-week study
  • Katie’s Secret – 12 week study

It is recommended that the helpers go through LDM’s How to Be a Barnabas training. This will not only help a mentor understand some of the emotional issues they may encounter, more importantly, it will train them in what to do when these issues arise.
