Sometimes, we can't get the technology gods aligned to give live over-the-phone demos. When that happens with SafeNight, we use this deck.

1. SAFENIGHT
Increase short-term shelter for domestic
violence and human trafficking survivors

2. WHAT IS THE PROBLEM?

3. Source: Partnership for Freedom

4. “During and immediately after a crisis when
there is a threat of immediate harm to the
victim, the most common identified need
was shelter or a place to stay.”

Human Trafficking in the U.S.

6. How can we unlock
resources to help all
groups of survivors?

7. WHAT IS OUR SOLUTION?

8. SafeNight will provide a
mechanism to engage
individual donors to fund
emergency, on-demand
hotel placements to meet
the needs of a diverse
group of domestic
violence and human
trafficking survivors.

9. How will SafeNight work?
1. The donor downloads SafeNight and creates a
profile. And then just carries their phone.
2. The individual in need contacts an appropriate
community support agency or hotline.
3. The case manager determines that a hotel is
an appropriate placement and inputs a request
for hotel room funding.
4. The donor receives an alert, which provides an
opportunity to pay for a hotel room via a
donation to the requesting organization.

16. What are the safeguards?
1. The case manager remains in control of the
placement process.
2. The donor pays for the hotel room by making a
donation to the requesting organization.
3. The individual in need does not interact directly
with SafeNight and has no personal information
in the system.
4. Only vetted organizations and case managers
can be in the system and make requests.

17. WHAT IS THE IMPACT?

18. Increase the amount of
emergency shelter for
domestic violence and
human trafficking survivors.

19. Provide an opportunity for
additional services and
support to be offered by
case managers.

20. Provide data for the field on
the need for shelter within
and across defined
geographic regions and
demographic groups.
