Our biggest fundraiser of the year will feature the region’s best musicians, great food, and survivor stories. This event is an invitation to you and the Greater Boston community to participate in the fight to end trafficking. All funds raised will go directly to Route One Ministry, a local anti-trafficking effort.

We are excited to welcome back last year’s musicians (Caleb McCoy, Jen Aldana, Katty Jimenez, & Jalen Williams) and hear from Jua Robinson, Executive Director at Boston Collaborative and Chaplain for the New England Patriots. Come meet Jua and hear how his work and experience in trauma work in Boston is connected to Route One.

This event is free, but you will be invited to make a tax-deductible gift to support Route One Ministry.

Our Mission & Impact

Route One reaches sexually exploited and trafficked women in strip clubs by building relationships and empowering them to step into a new way of life, and equips churches with tools and training to respond to people who have experienced trauma and abuse.

Each week our teams in Boston, Springfield, and Worcester build relationships with 70 exploited women in strip clubs.

This Spring, we are excited to launch sites in Connecticut, reaching 60 additional women and their families.
