The Dragonfly Home

What The Dragonfly Home does

The Dragonfly Home is an Oklahoma-based 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization (EIN 81-1809133) founded in March 2016 by Whitney Anderson and Melissa Eick, and certified the same year by the Oklahoma Attorney General's Office. It is the only state-certified nonprofit in Oklahoma City and central Oklahoma dedicated exclusively to human trafficking survivor services. The organization operates a non-residential service model comprising three core programs: a Human Trafficking Crisis Center providing therapy, case management, legal advocacy, and medical care; a confidential 24/7 Helpline staffed by trained advocates; and a Housing Assistance Program delivered through scattered-site independent housing partnerships with Upward Transitions and the City of Oklahoma City. All services are provided free of charge with no income, insurance, or religious requirements.

The underlying delivery model is human-staffed rather than technology-mediated: no proprietary software platform is disclosed, and the technology footprint is limited to a standard WordPress website, volunteer management portal (BetterImpact), and conventional social media channels. Bilingual English/Spanish capability and a trauma-informed care framework developed specifically for trafficking survivors constitute the primary qualitative differentiators.

Revenue is sourced entirely from individual and corporate donations (including monthly recurring gifts and one-time contributions) and government grants, with a notable $1 million Oklahoma AG grant awarded in February 2026. The organization is 100% locally funded, with all donations remaining in Oklahoma. Go-to-market relies on community-led awareness through referrals from a 38+ partner ecosystem spanning federal and local law enforcement, healthcare systems, tribal nations, legal aid, housing partners, and survivor word-of-mouth.
