Innovations HTC

Our mission is to engage first responders, tribes, and other stakeholders in eliminating human trafficking through solution-based knowledge and trauma-informed strategies. Also, to empower survivors to heal and build self-sufficient, affirming lives.

Gold Certification Awarded to Innovations HTC

“Certification Decision: Innovations WA has demonstrated that it provides the highest level of survivor care, and the Certification Review Board has awarded the Gold Certification Badge.

Programs with a gold badge meet industry best practices overall and continually push themselves through self-assessment and survivor feedback to continue elevating their programs.

Gold Certification is held for three years. Innovations provides holistic, trauma-informed care to female-identifying survivors of human trafficking within the transitional and independent living phases of after-care. The continuum of care offered to survivors in their program promotes autonomy and choice and leads to sustainable empowerment and outcomes for survivors of trafficking.

Innovations is a true leader in their state, and they should be commended for the ways in which they serve survivors and model trauma-informed care for others serving survivors of human trafficking.”

What makes us most proud

Innovations HTC is dedicated to delivering the best client service possible
by providing professionalism, compassion, and a personalized approach to every client.

This program has literally opened my eyes to my worth and self respect as a woman. I didn't know there were programs out there that have so much love hope and strength to carry the weight of a hurting woman like myself. I need this to be heard loud and clear, being trafficked is not a choice, it can be done by male, female, husband ,wife, mother, father or brother. I am willing to go on living and sharing my story because of the woman who started this program and for those who continue to make it run. Thank you annonymous

I have been able to have the enjoyment of working with Kera. She has been such a blessing for me. Kera always puts my needs as a priority, she works diligently always ready to assist in anyway that I need. I don't know how I would be able to survive without her literally. She has made this road to becoming my own person doable, I am so grateful to have the opportunity to have such a loving and truly caring woman to help me through this difficult time. Thank you so much Kera and Innovation's for all the support this program is absolutely amazing and needed. If I could leave 100 stars I would. Thank you Victoria

Innovations saved my life, more specifically Kyra Slater did. I was homeless and having some pretty serious problems with an ex. Kyra stepped in and helped relocate me. That one simple task saved my life. I now have a job and a place to live and I'm safe. Innovations and Kyra have continued to support me. I don't want to think what might have happened if it wasn't for them
