THE NEED IS GREAT, AND GROWING
Women and girls are disproportionately targeted by traffickers, and safe, specialist housing for survivors remains scarce.
Children as young as 8 years old are regularly trafficked
90% of victims are trafficked by someone they know and trust
Exploitation is fueled by poverty, abuse, and lack of education.
That's Where Courage House comes in.
Courage Worldwide runs licensed, trauma-informed homes in Tanzania, closing the gap since 2011.
Every Survivor Deserves the chance to be whole again.
Each survivor gets a personalized plan, safe accommodation, counseling, education, and a path back to independence – led, wherever possible, by survivors themselves.

Courage Houses Tanzania
Courage Worldwide's impact extends globally through Courage House Tanzania, one of the first long-term therapeutic homes for child survivors of sex trafficking in East Africa.
Our U.S. Legacy
For years, Courage Worldwide provided safe homes for young survivors of sex trafficking in California and Nevada. Those programs have closed, but their impact lives on in the survivors served and in the work we carry forward.
