Overview

Mission

Radiate coalition exists to develop, equip, and pioneer restorative programs that provide whole-person aftercare to victims of abuse, trafficking, exploitation, trauma, and oppression - as well as prevention education, aftercare training, family and community support services, and awareness efforts - across the globe.

What it reported doing in 2025

Whole-person care - honduras: to support the development of restorative programs providing whole-person care for victims of trauma and trafficking, the radiate coalition board of directors made contributions to resplandecer coalition - radiate coalition's related extension NGO registered in honduras. Resplandecer coalicion operates the casa de ester restoration home program, a residential safe home for teenage victims of sexual violence and trafficking; as well as the casa legado transition home program for graduating residents of the casa de ester program. The support of radiate coalition provided for budgeted operations and specific special projects for the casa de ester and casa legado programs, including university scholarships for residents of the casa legado program and graduates of the casa de ester program.

Operating model

The verdict

SUPPORTED - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. The filing reports few safeguards for money sent abroad and the filing does not identify recipients for some grant dollars.
