Art to Healing's mission is to support the recovery of child sex slaves, and women and children who have experienced sex trafficking, and exploitation in Asia with trauma-informed care and mental health support so that the cycle of sex slavery ends. We believe that this care is vital if women and girls are to recover from their traumatic pasts, build resilience and imagine new possibilities for their lives, that is free from fear, abuse, and exploitation.
