Memphis, we have a story of hope to tell.

In this powerful episode of Pulse of the Bluff, we dive into the game-changing partnership between Our Rescue (a global anti-trafficking force) and We Fight Monsters (Memphis’ own frontline warriors) as they transform 1192 Melrose Street into Hope House—a sanctuary for survivors of human trafficking.

Why This Matters: Memphis is a hotspot for trafficking, but this city fights back. Hope House isn’t just a shelter—it’s a trauma-informed recovery home offering housing, counseling, job training, and a chance to reclaim lives.

Street-Level Solutions: Hear how Derek Benner (Our Rescue CEO, ex-Homeland Security) walked Memphis’ toughest blocks alongside Ben Owen (We Fight Monsters) to build real, lasting change.
