- Healing. Help. Hope.
Empowering experiential women to flourish holistically
Setting the Captives Free Services is a Winnipeg-based, survivor-led ministry providing trauma-informed, practical support to women impacted by exploitation, addiction and trauma — walking alongside them from survival toward stability, purpose and independence.
Healing. Help. Hope.
Three words hold the whole of what we do — and the whole of what a woman walking through trauma, addiction or exploitation deserves to find here.
Healing
Trauma-informed counselling and emotional support that meets women exactly where they are, without judgment.
Help
Practical, everyday support — from recovery coaching to life-skills workshops — that reduces the barriers standing in the way.
Hope
A survivor-led community that believes restoration is possible, and walks every step of that journey alongside her.
