Hope for a better future

Hosea’s Heart is a safe home for girls who have been sexually exploited and girls at risk for abuse. Within a family-centered environment, our girls receive trauma-informed care, attend school, and grow together as sisters in a safe space, receiving holistic healing and hope.

Our mission is to empower the girls of eSwatini to achieve freedom from sexual abuse and hope for a better future by serving their physical, emotional and spiritual needs through a holistic, restorative process.
