Community Programs

Our community is global. Education, provider advocacy, leadership development, understanding and the awareness intelligence that we provide is a key component of our programs that are focused on prevention. Whether business leader, corporation, NGO, partner, faith based or law enforcement, we lead in enriched talks, curriculums, teachings and trainings.

PREVENTION

A noun

The act of stopping something from happening or of stopping someone from doing something.
That is what we pursue every day at the More Too Life Foundation.

Prevention is at the core of what we do, in all we do.

Providing direct care to victims is in and of itself, prevention as well. With the intensity of global crimes in human trafficking, its “root causes and collateral damage” that we have intrinsically studied, and our founder having coined this phrase, we have seen the need for prevention methods and concepts at the core of ending human trafficking, when many wouldn’t even fund it or realized its profound need.

"More Too Life strategically addresses the root causes of human trafficking through targeted prevention and education initiatives. Our programs, including RJEDE, LUYD, and Living Above the Noise, provide critical support and education to at-risk individuals and survivors. We empower men and women to build healthy relationships, equip youth with digital integrity and internet safety skills via LATN DI², (Living Above the Noise) and drive community-wide awareness through impactful events and trainings. By focusing on these key areas, we aim to disrupt the human trafficking cycle and create lasting societal change."

DIRECT VICTIM SERVICES

More Too Life’s victim service framework model is instrumental in all we do. For years we have learned so much about providing care. Many persons see direct care as only meeting the foundational needs of victims. While that is essential and true, it must not stop there. It’s like seeing the beach for the first time and never letting the waves roll across your feet or jumping in for the first time.

Whether we are providing direct care ourselves in one of our center locations, residential homes or overseeing the care of our mentees (victims) with our strategic partners that uniquely provide additional needed supportive services because we are there providing case management, we understand that life is more than getting out of harms way, having food or shelter. It’s about discovering identity, self and who we are and what is possible, especially after unbearable trauma.

Our direct care encompasses a deep dive into education, career guidance, therapy, goals, dreams and the assistance in helping to shape destiny.

We use very creative resources, processes and innovation to meet victims’ needs. Whether working with doctors for overall health, womb health for female victims, trauma-informed and applied methods, lawyers, tutors or clinicians we have seen thousands of lives changed. Our focus on life plans and deep case management covers everything in all of our programs with an individualized care process for each victim.

• Safe Shelter
• Mental Behavioral Health
• Clothing and other Goods
• Healthy Food
• Medical and Dental Support
• Legal such as court advocacy in human trafficking cases, assistance with expungements and other legal matters
• Career, Work and Job Training Programs
• Educational Services, GED, Highschool, College, Vocational and Certifications
• Life Coaching
• Mentoring
• Transportation
• Crime Victim Compensation Support

This is only part of what we do in direct care but key coordination is powerful, innovative and prolific. We also realize that 1000 days to five years is how long many of our survivors are connected to care. More Too Life, operates an Education and Assessment Crisis Care Centre in Sarasota County and Miami Dade Office with satellite offices with law inforcement, With direct and indirect services that affects thousands of victims, as well as hundreds of thousands of national communities, More Too Life has been identified as making remarkable revolutionary steps in delivering prevention and human trafficking direct care and education to hundreds of youths and young adults.

HIGH RISK YOUTH PREVENTION

In order to end human trafficking, prevention is needed for youth, especially age 10 to 18 years.

Our innovative curriculum for youth victims and those high-risk has a focus on education with our Digital Integrity and Intelligence education and our Living Above the Noise (LATN) that provides a yearlong structured study from self-discovery, communication skills, goal setting, understanding of negative bonds, mentoring, critical thinking, healthy relationships, gang violence avoidance, social media and the internet.

Along with other needed skills and exposure to the possibilities in the future of work with case management (mentor management) for survivors and group sessions and mentoring education for high risk youth.

WORKING ON THE ROOT CAUSES

Data aggregation in all areas of need from why survivor’s runaway, why they fear sharing and what is needed to see lives move past foundational structure.

Such as, stabilization, why teachers, therapist, and even first responders misread who victims are and cause further victimization or community members are sometimes afraid to understand.

We also partner with national and global leaders to think tank processes, reasons, and modalities of what the root causes are and a study of the collateral damages and public policy so that everyone knows how to play a part.

MENTORING

All of our programs, life plans, and team building is all based on mentoring.
Even our deep case management we see as mentor management.

We love this meaning from Forbes:

A mentor is simply someone who helps us get unstuck, a non-judgmental person who listens with an open mind to help us steer clear of the mistakes they themselves made (and wish they’d had a mentor to help avoid). A mentor helps us accelerate our growth by showing us a clearer path with fewer distractions and obstacles. Think of it this way: When you climb a mountain, you’re thrilled to get to the top — but then quickly look to the next peak and resolve to reach that summit. A mentor helps you scale those upcoming peaks.

- Jon Dwoskin

Through the knowledge and experience of a mentor, we believe the mentee can leap forward. It’s proven that they can learn to avoid making the same mistakes just by having an ambassador who cares.

MENTAL BEHAVIORAL HEALTH MANAGEMENT

Mental health is paramount in our survivor support framework. More Too Life delivers integrated care through our dedicated clinicians and a network of partner therapists.

We go beyond traditional therapy, actively managing and coordinating care by engaging with existing therapists and partnering with mental health institutions. This collaborative 'wrap-around' model ensures a trauma-informed and comprehensive healing process.
