Join Nebraska University Students Against Modern Day Slavery (NUSAMS) on Tuesday, April 9 at 6 p.m. in hosting Julie Shrader and Allie Knouse from Rejuvenating Women, a local nonprofit organization that provides hope and restoration to victims and survivors of human trafficking.
Julie Shrader is the founder and president of Rejuvenating Women and the Restored Wings Home Program. Rejuvenating Women is a local Omaha nonprofit that provides hope and restoration to victims and survivors of human trafficking from all over the United States.
Julie's vision has always been to provide a home that is safe with a compassionate trauma-informed staff and where survivors who have suffered complex trauma can begin to heal. Her passion is to help every woman find healing, peace and love by going through the Restored Wings Program.
Julie helps to raise awareness of human trafficking in Nebraska and desires to stop the "Johns" who are purchasing them as well as the "traffickers" selling them. If there is no demand, there will be no victims.
Allie Knouse is the director of development & marketing at Rejuvenating Women and has worked with the organization for two years. Allie received her bachelor's degree in psychology from Grace University and had a special interest in Addictions Counseling. Allie’s passion is to watch the residents take little steps to healing, string days and weeks together and experience restoration by making day-to-day choices.
