Thistle & Bee is dedicated to empowering women survivors of prostitution, trafficking, and addiction. Our mission is to provide a transformative and supportive environment where these women can heal and rebuild their lives.

We offer a free, community-based safe haven living model for two years, allowing the women to do the inner work needed to break the cycle of poverty, trauma, and multi-system failure.
