The Need
Many of the women who we help are; sex-trafficking victims who have experienced homelessness or are suffering from a drug/alcohol addiction.
01
Sex-Trafficking in Texas
Sex trafficking still exists in America. In fact, a report from the Statewide Human Trafficking Mapping Project of Texas stated that in 2016 there were 300,000 sex trafficking victims in Texas alone. Of these, 70,000 were minors.
02
Drug and Alcohol Addiction
Drug and alcohol addiction is a devastating condition involving compulsive use, cravings to obtain drugs or alcohol, and dysfunctional, self-defeating behavior. It destroys the individual as well as whole families… and even kills. It opens the door to a higher risk of crime, sexual behaviors, and other demoralizing activities.
03
Homelessness
Additionally, according to a study that Chaplin Hall did in 2017, one in 10 youth will experience homelessness between the age of 18-25. Homeless youth are at a higher risk for developing a drug/alcohol addiction or falling into sex trafficking.
Our Story
Hilltop Recovery Ministries was founded in 2012 in Kaufman, Texas with a focus on substance recovery.
In 2019 HRM was relocated to Belton, Texas, which is located along the I-35 corridor in the heart of what is known as the “Texas Triangle”
As each young women continues to change so must the programs offered by HRM. In 2020 we moved into our current building, where we serve young women ages 18-25. By providing a safe day-time environment offering case management, life skills training, faith-based discipleship to break the cycle of vulnerability.
In 2021, HRM enlarged our restoration resources with the opening of a Computer Lab. This critical element will aid in the support of GED and career prep development.
The Future is Now
The need for additional services for survivors is urgent and immediate, as HRM continues to engage with new young women each month our strategic plan is to own our current building.
HRM approaches the restoration of the survivors with a long-term, individualized care plan. We recognize the specific journey and needs of each young woman. Our team works with her to create a plan that will empower her to discover and achieve her God-given talents, dreams, and goals.
