Justice Projects

Vision Abolition

In 2007, MISSION Community Church teamed up with Homes of Hope "a non-profit organization created to help rescue and restore girls and women trafficked into sex slavery and sexual exploitation. Homes of Hope Fiji is a 43-acre village that provides long-term residential care for the rescued girls and their children and is the only place in all of the 300+ islands of Fiji that will house a girl who is pregnant, or has a child. They not only provide housing, but also food, clothing, medical and emotional care, education, and vocational training".[7]

Vision Arizona

In 2008, MISSION Community Church partnered with House of Refuge East (HRE) "a faith-based, non-profit organization helping homeless families and individuals in crisis by providing transitional housing and supportive services that assist participants as they strive toward self-sufficiency and seek to attain permanent housing. HRE consists of 88 two-bedroom homes and a Chapel/annex all located in a community setting. On any given day approximately 100 adults and 150 children call House of Refuge "home". Because greater than 50% of our residents come from shelters, this will often be the first safe home some children will have experienced".[8]

Vision Africa
