JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – Rethreaded, a social enterprise that employs survivors of human trafficking is launching an awareness and building funding campaign during Human Trafficking Awareness Month this January. The goal of this campaign is to finish raising funds for a brand new campus in historic Springfield.
Inside Rethreaded’s current workshop on Barnett Street, women are hard at work making scarves, handbags, jewelry, candles, etc. Every day, these women transform everyday items into works of art. Each finished piece symbolizes a survivor’s freedom. With a new building, Rethreaded’s founder, Kristin Keen, says it’ll be able to expand its mission.
