Who We Are

Thistle & Bee is a nonprofit that's modeled after their sister program, Thistle Farms, in Nashville. It's a two-year residential wrap-around services program for women survivors of human trafficking and addiction. 

The women that are accepted into the program live in housing called "The Hive." In the program, women participate in the 12 steps that they need if addiction is an issue. They're provided all the mental health assistance that they need, any physical and dental needs, as well as job training and financial literacy. 

Thistle & Bee provides a safe environment so women can focus on moving their lives forward. 

Our Mission

Learn How Love Heals

What We Do

Thistle & Bee provides each woman services based on her needs. Our clinical program is two years, with aftercare available upon completion. The social enterprise offers up to 18 months of employment in a supportive environment harvesting honey from our bees and making honey based products. There is potential for employment and mentoring roles beyond that. 

The women in the Thistle & Bee program are breaking the cycle of poverty and multi-system failure that has brought us to a place where sex trafficking and prostitution are at an unprecedented high.
