ROOTED IN COMPASSION. DRIVEN BY HOPE.

Restoration is possible.

At Action169, we exist to disrupt cycles of exploitation and addiction through prevention, presence, and compassionate care—walking with women toward lasting wholeness.


While not every woman in the sex industry has been trafficked, research shows that 70% of female trafficking victims end up in the commercial sex industry.


That’s why we go—to reach, support, and restore.

  • Prevention

    We prevent exploitation by equipping families, offering education and resources, and engaging communities through programs like Runway for Action.

    From school-based presentations to professional consulting and training, our prevention efforts are grounded in early intervention, identity development, and equipping individuals.

  • Intervention

    Bella Daughter is a survivor-led outreach initiative offering hope, dignity, and love to women in the commercial sex industry—primarily those working in strip clubs.

    Actively serving communities in Minnesota and Iowa.

  • Restoration

    Our restoration services create safe and supportive environments for women 18+ to heal from the impact of exploitation and addiction.

    Through art-based workshops, Bible studies, support groups, and personalized care—both online and in-person—we nurture identity, faith, and long-term wholeness.

Action169 is committed to addressing commercial sexual exploitation and substance use through Christ-centered prevention, intervention and holistic restoration care services.
