Holding Out HELP provides those who come from a polygamous culture the resources needed to transition from isolation to independence.
Become an ally of Holding Out HELP & support this underserved population-many who are leaving their polygamous roots.
We are always looking for people to volunteer for upcoming events, fundraisers and other activities.
You can help us reach new audiences and increase the support of Holding Out HELP by sponsoring an event in your community.
Our Founder, Tonia Tewell, was asked to speak at the Utah Special Victims Investigations Conference, along with a panel of HOH clients. Tonia presented a cultural sensitivity training on how to interact with those from polygamy and the panel shared their stories and how law enforcement could improve.
Joseph was only 13 when he mustered up the courage to flee from the shed he had been forced to live in for 3 months. You see, he wasn’t worthy to be part of the family. He was considered rebellious for talking to apostates (those that were part of the religion but chose to leave).
