At First Fruit Ministries, we live out God's call to “love thy neighbor” by serving those at the intersection of homelessness and human trafficking through our supportive housing and outreach programs.

​

Tonight, over 250 people will sleep on the streets of New Hanover County—many at risk of exploitation. Challenges like substance use, past trauma, medical burdens, and financial hardship make these individuals particularly vulnerable for commercial sex traffickers.

​

We're committed to breaking toxic cycles, and instead building healthy, safe, and loving spaces that offer hope and protection to our city’s most vulnerable. Through supportive outreach and case management services, residential programs and assistance, and comprehensive medical and food support, we help people meet their critical needs—alleviating homelessness while preventing human trafficking.
