In this powerful final replay of our Safe Home Training Series, we shift from starting and running a safe home to how you can support one—as a volunteer, a donor, a church, a business, or simply someone who cares deeply about restoring lives from human trafficking. Host Jeremy Hicks is joined once again by Brandy Cristafulli, founder of Life Recaptured, for a heartfelt, honest, and incredibly practical conversation on what kind of help truly makes a difference—and why most safe homes can't survive without it. Whether you're wondering how to give, volunteer, network, or advocate for survivors—this episode is your step-by-step guide. ⏱ Timestamps 00:00 – Welcome back: Let's talk about support 00:36 – "Yes, it's financial—but it's more than that" 01:22 – How Brandy built her network of dentists, surgeons, hospitals 03:20 – "I started at a veterans post"—you never know who will support you 04:54 – Why finding local professionals is crucial: dentists, optometrists, pharmacists 06:27 – Fun matters too—building safe, joyful experiences for survivors 07:29 – The role of churches and strategic partnerships 08:25 – A call to churches: reach out to 10 others about supporting a safe home 09:59 – Why safe homes need more than just volunteers—they need vetting, trust, and strategy 11:08 – How vetting and prayer create a trustworthy safe home 12:16 – What it takes to become a trained, approved volunteer 13:22 – Not everyone is ready to work directly with survivors—and that's okay 14:35 – Realities of trauma: why training, NDAs, and boundaries are non-negotiable 15:18 – Why many safe homes shut down: accusations, burnout, or lack of training 17:09 – "We've hung by a thread"—Brandy's honesty about funding struggles 18:22 – Brandy's dream: a safe home in every county in the U.S. 19:09 – "Trafficking is forgotten"—why we need more awareness AND more action 20:50 – We can't do this alone: collaborate, share, and scale together 21:54 – The 3-tier foundation that sustains a safe home: training, loyalty, and funding 💡 What You'll Learn * Support isn't always money—but safe homes cannot survive without it * Churches have a unique role in supporting and networking for safe homes * Vetted volunteers protect both survivors and themselves * Practical support like medical, dental, and over-the-counter supplies saves lives * Most safe homes close because of poor training or lack of sustainable funding * You CAN make a difference by building a network around an existing safe home 🎯 How to Take Action 1. Start the process of launching a safe home (get trained, get support, get wise) 2. Support an existing home like Life Recaptured—financially or practically 3. Pray for more homes, more resources, and more hope #SafeHomeSeries #TraffickingFreeAmerica #BrandyCristafulli #LifeRecaptured #USIAHT #SupportSafeHomes #EndHumanTrafficking #FaithInAction #SurvivorCare
