Jacqueline Homan is a sex trafficking survivor. She needs help with repairs on her home so that she can provide shelter and job training to other survivors. Her house is in disrepair, she doesn't have electricity in her main living building & has been ordered to demolish one of the buildings on the property.
She has been a constant voice and active in the fight against sex trafficking. She was trafficked before the world became widely aware of this problem.
Without her home, she not only will become homeless but won't have the space nor resources to fight sex trafficking nor support other survivors.

We can't afford to donate, things are too tight here but I'm hoping others can.
From Indiegogo:
"In her home state of Pennsylvania, which just received an F on its sex trafficking report card, Jacqueline is denied health care, financial support and services, and turned away from even minimum wage employment due to her criminal record, a record that she obtained before she was even old enough to consent.
Now at the age of 47, and through the generous help of advocate and activist, Ed Drain, a military vet, Jacqueline has finally begun to learn and make a small income in the IT field. Unfortunately, due to lack of income over 30 years, Jacqueline has been unable to make timely electrical and structural repairs to her residence and one of the buildings next to her main house on her property. Recently, she was given a code citation and ordered to demolish the outbuilding (formerly a machine shop run by her deceased husband who willed her the property) within 30 days.
Currently, the main building on the property, where she resides, does not have electricity. Ever resilient, Jacqueline uses the out building to get electricity into her home. Electricity that enables her to continue striving towards self sufficiency as well as the opportunity to create a national non-profit that will provide safe housing as well as job training to other sex trafficking survivors. If she loses her residence, Jacqueline will become homeless and unable to continue working towards realizing her dream of helping others.
