Images of Glory, Inc.
The Problem
Also, victims suffer from the “downstream effects” of sexual violence such as substance dependency and dysfunctional social behaviors.
Our Core Values
Images of Glory was the first licensed and certified Human Sex Trafficking House in the Central Florida area. Our core values have been forged by 20+ years of experience and service dedicated to victims of sexual trauma and abuse. The commitment to these core values began with Katherine Norfleet, our CEO, and runs deep through the organization.
Restoration
We help our clients by offering a safe place to rest as well as health evaluations, and counseling services
Redemption
We believe God’s redeeming love frees us from sin and guilt fostering real and complete forgiveness
Reunification
We believe in families coming together again after being separated by sexual trauma restoring healthy relationships

Therapeutic counseling, for individuals and groups, is delivered based on strength-based and trauma-informed approaches all with a client-centered focus. Through our counseling services, we promote safety, trustworthiness, transparency, peer support, collaboration, mutuality, empowerment, voice, and choice.
Case management and care coordination services are available for anyone who needs extra support and assistance in accessing formal community services and institutional resources.

We provide outreach, advocacy, and robust coordination between the case manager and the client.
Respite care services are only offered through the Drop-in Center. The Drop-in Center is a calm and safe place for human trafficked victims who need a “temporary” place of refuge for a few hours, but not more than 23 hours. While at the Drop-In Center, clients may receive a compassionate care package (e.g., nutrition, clothing, toiletries, bus passes, etc.) and access to restrooms.
IOG offers additional services to support and empower the community. Those include a Food Pantry, Diaper Depot, Youth Mentoring, and Tutoring. Also, IOG offers Community Workshops & Training on several critical topics such as Human Trafficking, Bullying, and Anger Management.
