Restoring Ivy Collective

The RIC is a survivor led and run organization in the DC area. We provide group therapy, support groups, weekly community dinners, and drop in services including laundry, meals, and general safe space. Mom mentors are available to survivors who are mothers or pregnant.

The Restoring Ivy Collective aims to build community and connection for female sex trafficking survivors. Services to meet the needs of survivors may include community support, group therapy and support, service referrals, and drop-in center space, in a confidential, safe home environment. Using a trauma-informed and empowerment-based framework for practice, RIC provides a secure foundation for rebuilding after sexual exploitation through clinical interventions and social support building.
