HerSong Capital District Story
Her Song began as a lament in the hearts of two women, Rachel White and Kelly Posze, who asked themselves, “When a survivor of human trafficking is rescued, where does she go?” Their search for answers revealed a significant gap: at the time, there were no long-term residential programs available in northeast Florida for survivors of human trafficking. As they dug deeper, they found that long-term care for survivors was limited across the United States. Without a place for ongoing support, many women who had been rescued were falling back into the cycle of trafficking and oppression. Her Song was created to break this cycle and provide a safe space for survivors to rest, heal, and rebuild their lives with the tools needed for a sustainable future in freedom.
Founded in 2013, Her Song embarked on a mission to deliver survivor-centered care. Over the next few years, the organization opened its first residential safe house in Northeast Florida, offering both residential support and case management services to more than 2,000 trafficking survivors. In 2020, Her Song took a significant step forward by merging with the Tim Tebow Foundation, enabling the organization to expand nationally and provide care to even more survivors. This partnership marked the beginning of a new chapter, allowing Her Song to extend its impact and continue supporting women on their path to freedom and restoration.
