  • Mission

    HER Resiliency Center (HER) supports all women, and serves young women ages 18-25, regardless of race, class, and background. HER encapsulates a multilateral, holistic, and individualized approach – which is needed when combating systemic barriers that lead to poverty, substance use, homelessness, and sexual exploitation. No two women are identical and HER recognizes recovery, healing, and empowerment is an individualized journey.

    About Us

    HER is a survivor-led nonprofit established in 2015 in Washington, DC, to support vulnerable young women ages 18-25 with the support, skills, and resources they need to make positive decisions and thrive. HER's mission is to support young women overcoming various hardships ranging from aging-out of foster care, homelessness, drug addiction, early pregnancy, sex trafficking, commercial sex work, and other forms of trauma. In 2019, HER Resiliency Center expanded its reach to also include Baltimore City.
