Who We Are
Help for His Lambs, Inc. (HFHL) exists to restore hope and healing to abused, neglected, exploited, homeless, and traumatized children, teens, and young adults. We serve vulnerable individuals affected by abuse, abandonment, trafficking, addiction, poverty, family disruption, grief, homelessness, and other adverse childhood experiences.
HFHL is building a regional network of faith-based and community partners dedicated to helping young people heal, develop resilience, and achieve their God-given potential through compassionate, trauma-informed survival-care and restoration.
Our Vision
To be a beacon of hope and healing for abused and traumatized children and young adults by providing trauma-informed counseling, education, mentoring, temporary housing, and supportive services within safe and compassionate communities.
Our Mission
HFHL works to restore lives through a comprehensive, regional trauma-informed model of care by providing:

Our approach seeks to help children and young adults heal emotionally, physically, academically, socially, and spiritually while preparing them for healthy, productive futures.
