Grace Horizon is a community of survivors in Central Indiana supporting each other in the recovery from violence and exploitation, including sex trafficking and sexual exploitation. We approach anti-trafficking through the three R’s: relationship, resource support, and recovery.
We offer coaching, counseling, and mentorship to those affected by violence and exploitation. We have recovery tools available for our community to utilize in their personal journeys toward healing and rediscovering wholeness.
Started as an outreach of a local church, Grace Horizon has grown into a stand alone 501(c)(3). The organization has now grown in such a way that survivors are now in leadership roles at every level of the organization, and other survivors are taking courageous steps toward recovering from lives of violence and exploitation.

Recovery
​
We take a multi-generational approach to anti-trafficking through relationship, resource support, and recovery because we believe the community is defined by the wholeness of each individual. That means that when one of us is marginalized, we as a community are not whole. We believe that transformation comes through hard work and readiness for change.
​
Relationship
We foster relationships with each person in our organization, recognizing that it is in the soil of authentic, healthy relationships that seeds of hope grow. We have a team of volunteers, coaches, and staff that work to cultivate these relationships through ongoing, consistent interaction with participants.
Resource Support
Resource support is so much more than just financial. Staff play a vital role in supporting individuals and families on their journey to rediscover wholeness. Staff roles include: social work, peer recovery, trauma therapy, housing, and children's advocacy. When participants are active members of our community, participating regularly in coaching, counseling, or peer recovery, they are eligible for resource support through grants we have received for housing and utilities, transportation, child care, and more. We also have an Emergency Fund that is utilized to assist those leaving unsafe or dangerous situations.
Recovery
The road to healing is not linear, and while we utilize many good steps and resources on that path, we also recognize that each person’s journey is unique. We do not push people to take steps for which they’re not ready. We do ask reflective questions and encourage participants, volunteers, and coaches to continue to learn, and grow. Programmatically we have recovery meetings during the week in Anderson and Muncie, individual appointments with staff, seminars discussing topics chosen by participants, and a twice-weekly trauma-informed yoga class that helps to foster recovery. We partner with Heart of Indiana United Way for coaches in finance, resource support, employment, and peer recovery.
