Elijah Rising is a Houston-based nonprofit organization focused on ending sex trafficking through a combination of prayer, awareness, intervention, and survivor restoration. Since its founding in 2012 as a prayer gathering, the group has expanded its activities to include public outreach, interventions in brothels and related venues, and a museum dedicated to exposing the realities of modern-day slavery. The organization operates a residential program, Kendleton Farms, that provides housing, trauma-informed counseling, life skills training, educational resources, and job skills to survivors, with the aim of helping them rebuild empowered lives. Serving the broader community as a social-service and advocacy entity within the non-profit sector, Elijah Rising engages volunteers and partners to address the needs of survivors and to raise awareness about trafficking in Houston and surrounding areas. Its operations have included acquiring and repurposing facilities for its mission, such as converting a former brothel into its headquarters and expanding campus infrastructure to support its programs and social enterprise initiatives.
