A new program dedicated to supporting survivors of human trafficking and their children has been launched in South Lake County.

This program is designed to be trauma-informed and will serve individuals across several communities, including Clermont, Four Corners, Groveland, Mascotte, Minneola, and Monteverde.

Organizers anticipate serving more than 15 survivors within the program's initial 12 months. The support offered will encompass individualized case management, safety planning, mental health services, life-skills coaching, and leadership development, all aimed at helping survivors rebuild their lives.
