Meet Our Team

Sali and her husband Scott have been married since 1993 and have two grown children who truly love the Lord and serve Him daily. Sali is a hairstylist of 36 years and owns and operates her own Salon "Shadz & Co" out of their home. Her passion and soul desire is to be the hands and feet of Jesus, wherever the Lord calls her. Her heart is to help combat this crippling disease of sex trafficking and what is known as the fastest-growing crime today. For all who are impacted by this, she is called to share the light of Jesus in every life. "If I can be a part of helping rescue one victim, then I am the one blessed."

Elaine and her husband Joe have been married since 2006 and have four grown children. They have lived in Chippe​wa Falls since 1989, and are ministry partners at their church. Elaine worked with children with special needs and has volunteered at her local juvenile detention center. She also has an extensive background in the medical field for 17 years and worked in a facility with abused children. Because of her experience, she feels desperately called to help combat this debilitating issue of trafficking. Elaine loves Jesus and is passionate about the Lord's work. Her soul mission is to help win souls for Christ.

Kyli is passionate about combining digital marketing and advocacy to support the mission of Rescued & Redeemed. With a background in art, branding, and creative communication, she uses visual storytelling to raise awareness, inspire change, and foster community engagement. Alongside her advocacy work, Kyli manages a floral shop in Eau Claire, Wisconsin. She finds joy in creativity and nature whether designing with flowers, kayaking, hiking, or traveling and seeks to reflect beauty, hope, and lasting impact in all she does.

Jennifer and her husband have been married since 2013 and have two vibrant and beautiful daughters. Jennifer holds a degree in Healthcare Administration and currently works as a nursing home administrator.  In 2023 Jennifer felt the Lord call her to join Rescued & Redeemed in 2023 after learning of the devastating impacts sex trafficking and sexual exploitation have on the local community that her daughters were growing up in.  Jennifer uses her gifts in administration and operations to facilitate programming and structure for the survivors that Rescued & Redeemed serves.  Jennifer’s passion is to bring hope and healing to survivors and abusers to permanently break the cycle of this evil system.

A native of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, I relocated to the Chippewa Valley in 2024 with my husband, an Eau Claire native, along with our King Charles Cavalier Spaniel and two cats. With over a decade of experience in the Employee Benefits insurance field, I bring a strong professional background coupled with a deep passion for community service and nonprofit work. I began volunteering with Rescued and Redeemed in October 2024, contributing in the business office. The organization’s meaningful mission and the sense of camaraderie among volunteers have inspired my commitment to supporting its success. In my free time, I enjoy swimming, traveling, and reading.

Sara and her husband have been in the Chippewa Valley since 2017 and have enjoyed becoming part of a vibrant community that has so much to offer. They married in 2015 and are raising two young children to be on fire for the Lord. Sara holds a Master’s degree in Acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine and is passionate about integrative health care that can treat patients in a more holistic way. She met Sali and Elaine at a women’s conference; Sara knew the Lord was speaking to her but was unable to serve until getting through a difficult health struggle. When their card fell out of her prayer journal a few years later she knew it was time to get involved. She is deeply motivated to help our survivors build up their lives in a way that integrates them into society as a fully functioning, faith-filled member of both their own circles and our community at large.
