Eden is Restoration 1:99’s economic empowerment program (EEP) for survivors of complex trauma/trafficking. Eden's focus is teaching and supporting trauma survivors to make hand-crafted home, bath & body products made from the highest quality of herbs and other natural ingredients. When we incorporate the use of herbs into our lives, we open up a whole new stratum of experiences that include working with and enjoying familiar scents and learning to appreciate new ones.

In June of 2020, we launched Eden as a pilot program, to test the market to see if the community would support our endeavors. We are overjoyed with the love that has been shown to us. Our goal is to offer two cohorts per year of 15 survivors each to discover the wonderful world of herbalism and all it has to offer.

Eden is not just about training survivors on how to make hand-crafted herbal products, but about creating a safe place for these survivors to heal. Teaching survivors skills are what most EEPs are about. However, at R1:99, learning the skill is secondary to our primary focus of helping them build their healthy community, build resiliency, understand workplace relationships, and to thrive in their new life.

The majority of our survivors have experienced a number of seemingly insurmountable barriers to employment, such as the lack of a high school diploma/GED (due to sex trafficking, in most cases), no legal work experience, lack of understanding about workplace relationships, and legal charges that can take years to clear up.

Building community + clinical counseling + life skills + spirituality = wholeness.

Eden offers products for men, women (including new mothers), children, and babies. We hope you will check out our products and support survivors on their journey into wholeness.
