Las Vegas can be a city of extremes. For many people, surviving here means making choices that others will never fully understand. At Vegas Stronger, we don’t need to understand every detail of your story to be in your corner. We just need you to walk through the door.
We provide free, confidential behavioral healthcare and recovery support to anyone navigating trauma, exploitation, addiction, housing instability, or crisis. No judgment. No appointment required.
When you arrive, a member of our team will welcome you and walk you through a brief, confidential intake process. You will not be asked to prove anything or provide documentation before being seen. You will never be required to provide a legal name, an ID, or any paperwork to access our services. The intake is simply a conversation — a chance for us to understand what you need and connect you with the right support. If you have questions about what to expect before you come in, you are welcome to call us first.
If life has brought you somewhere difficult, we want to help you find your way forward. On your terms. At your pace.
Exploitation, trafficking, and survival-based circumstances touch people of every background. Our services are designed for anyone who needs them, including people who may not see themselves as a survivor and aren’t looking to be treated like one.You do not need to prove that you belong here. We will not ask you for documentation, a formal diagnosis, or any kind of verification to access services. If you tell us what you are experiencing, we believe you, and we work from there.
Adults of All Genders & Identities
We serve adults of all genders, including women, men, and nonbinary individuals, as well as people of all sexual orientations: gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender, queer, and beyond. Exploitation, trafficking, and trauma do not discriminate, and neither do we. Our team is trained to provide affirming, respectful care to every person who walks through our doors.
Transitional-Age Youth (Ages 16-24)
Young people are among the most vulnerable to exploitation and the least likely to be connected to services. If you are a young person experiencing homelessness, trafficking, addiction, or crisis, or if you know someone who is, we have resources and staff specifically prepared to help.
Survivors of Sex Trafficking & Exploitation
Whether your situation involved force, fraud, coercion, or circumstances that left you with no good options, what happened to you was not your fault. You deserve support, and you deserve to receive it without having to relive your story in order to prove it. We provide trauma-informed care that meets you where you are in your process, not where we think you should be.
People in the Sex Industry
If you are currently working in commercial sex, by choice, by circumstance, or somewhere in between, you deserve access to healthcare, safety planning, and support without being lectured or judged. We are not here to tell you what to do with your life. We are here to help you stay safe, stay healthy, and access whatever support makes your situation better.
Individuals Experiencing Homelessness or Addiction
Addiction and housing instability are often deeply entangled with trauma and exploitation, each one making the others harder to escape. You do not need to be sober, housed, or ready to change anything to access our services. We believe in meeting people where they are, because that is where healing actually begins.
Our services are integrated, meaning we treat the whole person, not just one piece of the problem. From your first contact with our team, we work to connect you with everything you need in one place, with one consistent team who knows your story.
Same-Day Behavioral Health Assessments
Our team of trained clinicians can meet with you to discuss what you may be going through and connect you to the appropriate level of care. No appointment necessary. Walk in today. Many people who come to us are not sure whether what they have experienced qualifies as trauma, trafficking, or abuse. You do not need to have a label for it. Our clinicians are trained to help you make sense of your situation, whatever it is.
Trauma-Informed Care
Trauma-informed care is not a single service. It is the foundation of everything we do. Every member of our team, from the front desk to our clinical staff, is trained to understand how trauma shapes behavior, communication, and trust. This means you will never be treated as a problem to be managed. You will be treated as a person navigating something hard, with our full support behind you.
Substance Use Treatment & Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT)
Addiction is often a response to pain, not a character flaw. We provide evidence-based substance use treatment including Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT) with buprenorphine and other medications that reduce cravings and withdrawal, so that recovery becomes possible rather than just theoretical.
Psychiatric Services
Mental health conditions including PTSD, depression, anxiety, and bipolar disorder are common among survivors of trauma and exploitation. We offer psychiatric evaluation, diagnosis, and medication management by licensed providers. Trauma-informed care is woven into our psychiatric services, meaning your mental health treatment will always account for what you have been through.
Peer Recovery Support
Sometimes the most powerful support comes from someone who has been there. Our certified peer support specialists have lived experience with trauma, addiction, and recovery. They provide one-on-one support, help you navigate your personal goals, and walk alongside you through the recovery process. Unlike a case manager, a peer specialist focuses entirely on your emotional journey: your motivation, your day-to-day challenges, and your sense of self. Both roles may be part of your care, and our team will explain clearly how each one supports you differently.
Case Management
Recovery involves a lot of moving parts: appointments, benefits, housing applications, legal documents, referrals, and more. Our case managers coordinate all of it on your behalf so you don’t have to navigate complex systems alone. While your peer support specialist walks with you through the personal side of recovery, your case manager handles the practical and logistical pieces. Having both means nothing gets dropped.
Safety Planning
If you are in a dangerous situation or trying to safely exit one, our team will work with you confidentially to develop a personalized safety plan. We connect you with resources to help you protect yourself, on your timeline, at your pace, and without pressuring you to take any steps before you are ready.
Housing Navigation
Stable housing is foundational to recovery, and finding it is rarely straightforward. We help individuals access emergency shelter, transitional housing, and longer-term stable housing options, including specialized programs for survivors of trafficking, domestic violence, and childhood abuse. Our role is to navigate those options with you honestly, including being transparent about what is and is not currently available, so you can make informed decisions.
ID & Document Assistance
Many survivors of trafficking or homelessness have lost, or never had access to, the documents needed to access services, housing, or employment. We provide on-site assistance to help you obtain birth certificates, state IDs, Social Security cards, and other essential documents. Having this support available in the same location as your other services means fewer barriers and fewer steps between you and what you need.
Transportation Assistance
Getting to appointments can be a real barrier, and we don’t want logistics to stand between you and your care. Transportation support is available to help you reach services, housing resources, and community programs. Please speak with a staff member at your intake or at any appointment to discuss what transportation assistance is available for your situation.
Recovery Support Groups
Connection is part of healing. We offer group programming for individuals navigating recovery, trauma, and the challenges of rebuilding, regardless of whether they identify as being in recovery from a substance. Groups are open to survivors, individuals in the sex industry, and anyone seeking community and support in a safe, nonjudgmental space.
Crisis Intervention
If you or someone you know is in immediate crisis, our team provides same-day, non-police crisis support. We will listen, help stabilize the situation, and connect you to the right resources without judgment. We understand that many people will not seek help if it means automatic law enforcement involvement. Our crisis response does not automatically involve the police, and we will always discuss your options with you before any action is taken.
Our care model is built on one foundational belief: people are more than their hardest moments. Every service we provide, and every interaction you have with our staff, reflects this.
Trauma-Informed
We understand that trauma changes the way people think, feel, and interact with the world. Our entire team, from the front desk to our clinical staff, is trained to recognize the signs of trauma and respond in ways that create safety rather than retraumatization. You will never be asked to prove your trauma or justify yourself before receiving care.
Meet People Where They Are
We do not require anyone to be ready, sober, housed, or working toward any particular goal to receive care. We start from wherever you are and build from there, because demanding change before providing support is a barrier, not a treatment model.
Nonjudgmental & Affirming
You will not be shamed for how you have survived. Our staff are trained to provide care that respects your dignity, your autonomy, and your experience, regardless of the choices you have made, the situations you have been in, or where you are right now.
Recovery-Oriented
Recovery is not a single event. It is a lifelong process with progress, setbacks, and everything in between. We are committed to supporting people over the long term, not just in a moment of crisis.
Integrated Care
Trauma, addiction, mental health, housing, and physical health are all connected. Rather than sending you to five different places for five different problems, we coordinate your care under one roof so that nothing falls through the cracks, and every provider working with you understands your full picture.
Meet People Where They Are
We do not require anyone to be ready, sober, housed, or working toward any particular goal to receive care. We start from wherever you are and build from there, because demanding change before providing support is a barrier, not a treatment model.
Survivor-Centered & Empowering
You are the expert on your own life. Our role is to provide options, resources, and support, never to make decisions for you or push you toward a path that isn't yours. Your autonomy is not something we work around. It is something we actively protect.
You don’t need to have everything figured out before you contact us. You don’t need to know what kind of help you need or have a name for what you’ve been through. You don’t need to be ready to change anything. You just need to make one call, send one message, or walk through one door. Our team will take it from there.

You are being trafficked or controlled by someone else

You are a survivor of trauma and need someone to talk to
You are in the sex industry and want access to healthcare or support
You are a concerned friend, family member, or service provider seeking guidance
All services are free and confidential. We do not share your information without your consent except as required by law. If you want to know exactly what that means, including what circumstances require disclosure, our team reviews this with you during the intake process, and you are welcome to ask questions at any time. You will not be judged. You will not be turned away.
Vegas Stronger does not work in isolation. We collaborate closely with community partners to ensure that no one falls through the cracks, and that the support we provide is connected to the broader network of resources available in Las Vegas.
