Tru Light127 Ministries

Our Mission is to shine truth and light in to the world of hurting children. We seek to stop the flow of children from “aging out" of the system and moving from placement to placement while in the system. We seek to stop them from becoming a sad statistic of hopelessness. We seek to do this by being their voice in a world that ignores them, supporting them with tangible services to meet their real needs, and empowering them with the knowledge and self-esteem they need to pursue their dreams. We will empower and equip individuals, communities, and churches to move in God's call in James 1:27 to care for the orphans. By doing so, we can change the course of their lives from a sad statistic to a productive citizen of society full of hopes, dreams, and ambition to do more.

Restored To Dream

MISSION To restore hope, health, and healing to the sexually exploited, while serving, equipping, and protecting those who may be exploited simply as a result of their circumstances. CHARITY DESCRIPTION Restored to Dream is a Christian, faith-based nonprofit. We are dedicated to the rehabilitation of the sexually exploited and preemptively engage those who are statistically at-risk based on their domestic and environmental conditions. Approximately 90% of our efforts are focused on post-rescue trauma care and the very difficult work of dealing with the effects imposed by trauma. Our services are offered at no cost to participants and include a 4-phase Program conducted over 18 months, with an optional 5th Phase on Leadership. Program courses include Therapeutic Arts and various Life skills that are tailored to children, teens, and adults. Participant success is measured through the Arizona Self-Sufficiency Matrix, as well as additional customized assessments. We recognize the journey to healing is a long and difficult road. Therefore, throughout our Program, we assess and evaluate the progress of our participants and provide necessary support and wrap-around services, to include immediate family members. The remaining 10% of our efforts are focused on active rescues initiated through Law Enforcement and community agencies. Post rescue, we evaluate and determine Program readiness and the appropriate combination of services required, which may include referrals to partner and sister organizations. We strive to collaborate by recognizing the shared goals of our partners and sister organizations to restore hope, health, and healing to those we serve.
