MISSION: Terebinth Refuge is a Christ centered, non-profit shelter and transitional home that brings hope and provides strength based, trauma-informed and holistic services for sex trafficked and sexually exploited women, transitioning them from bondage to a life of health, stability and independence. MOTTO: "Shelter. Healing. Rest. Growth." Signifies our commitment to providing a holistic approach and progression to healing and restoration in the lives of the women we serve.The St. Cloud/Central MN area has identified sex trafficking as a serious problem effecting the community. Due to the lack of housing and resources for victims, women found through law enforcement efforts are forced to return to this life as there are no safe options for them. Terebinth Refuge is well positioned to fulfill this gap in services by providing shelter beds, offering respite and services for women who have not yet made the decision to leave "the life" of exploitation. We also provide long-term transitional housing for women who have made the decision to leave along with children 5 years and under. Our services include, trauma-based therapy, support groups, education services, job skills training and opportunities, independent living skills, recreation, leisure activities and faith-based support.
