Programs and results
What we aim to solve
The Hub is on a mission to give everyone in our city access to a restored life. We do that primarily by serving two main populations: individuals in poverty and homelessness as well as women and children experiencing sexual exploitation through the sex industry and/or victims of human trafficking both adult and juvenile. Through our programs we address the following issues: drug addiction, mental health, incarceration, prostitution, human trafficking, unemployment and many other systemic issues that come with poverty, homelessness & sexual exploitation/human trafficking.

Members can join The Lovewell and gain access to a membership account and a schedule of classes and programs. Members can attend those classes to earn credits on their membership account that they can then use to shop in The Lovewell's resource stores: The Dresswell Clothing Store, The Smellwell Laudromat, The Eatwell food store and The Stylewell barber shop/salon.
