Wedgwood’s Manasseh Project Outreach

The Survivor Advisory Board exists for Lived Experience Experts to provide leadership, guidance, insight, input, solutions, and opportunities to advocate in helping end Human Trafficking here in West Michigan and beyond. The goal of the Board is to collaborate and inform decisions in partnership with the West Michigan Human Trafficking Coalition.  While this application is on Wedgwood Christian Services website, the Survivor Advisory Board is a partnership between Wedgwood, Safe Haven Ministries, Sacred Beginnings and the West Michigan Human Trafficking Coalition. There is no expectation of serving any of the collaborating partners in any capacity. Through this cooperative effort we hope to provide the space, support and resources so that those who have survived human trafficking can use their voices with the goal of ending modern day slavery.  

If you have any questions regarding this application, please contact Andrea Keller at akeller@wedgwood.org
