Established in 2007 by Deborah and Dr. David Alessi, Face Forward is a non-profit organization dedicated to providing emotional support, along with reconstructive surgery to those who have been victims of Domestic Violence, Human Trafficking, or any Cruel Acts of Crime.
This non-profit organization was not created exclusively for getting rid of physical damage caused by violence, but emotional damage, as well. Patients are made to feel beautiful, both inside and out.
A team of skilled surgeons and specialists provide physical and emotional reconstruction to those needing treatment and cannot afford it pro bono.
Patients have received over $750,000 in treatments so far.

I think this is a great organization! It’s nice to see that there are doctors that do pro bono work! Thanks for stopping by to read and comment.
So many people doing good work. You included, getting the word out.
Thank you Lori!
Good information. Good of you to get this out there!
Thank you!
These are the types of stories news organizations should focus a bit more of their time on. There is so much good going in the world day to day.
The media should be covering these organizations but they are too busy with many foolish things that sell papers. It’s all about the money to them! This organization is an extremely important one that many probably don’t know about.
I hear you and the sensationalism is just insane. It’s definitely all about the money and it’s disgusting.
