Governmental agencies, such as various child services bureaus, often refer victims and cases of child sex trafficking, or other child sexual abuse, to us. We have built several experienced operations teams adept at performing covert investigations needed for authorities to take action. Through outreach, networking, intelligence gathering and targeted prayer, we have been instrumental in the rescue of over 4,000 victims since our inception. In addition, the ministry combats human trafficking and sexual exploitation by raising awareness through our website, speaking engagements, awareness events and other activities.Aftercare: Breaking Chains works to bring healing, deliverance, and restoration to victims of sexual exploitation and trafficking. For this purpose, we have developed a specialized aftercare program with a holistic approach that includes Bible study, discipleship, life skills and vocational training. The program, when implemented in Central America, demonstrated a 72% success rate, bringing transformation to entire families torn apart by sexual exploitation. This past year, we inaugurated a USA rescue and restoration center to further expand our impact. 152256 true true false false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false true 0 0 true 1 true false false false false false false false 0 false false false false false false false X 4 3 false false false false false false false true true false false true true true true false false true true false CA NC X Jill Folsom 6197526325 12806 ABRA PLACE San Diego CA 92128 STEVEN T CASS President 70.00 0.00 X X 31079 0 0 JILL W FOLSOM Secretary 15.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 DANIEL THOMPSON Treasurer 1.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 SANDRA TRAVER Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 31079 0 false false false 0 227418 61157 227418 0 27 27 0 0 0 114293 119814 -5521 -5521 -5521 0 0 0 0 221924 -5494 0 0 0 0 31079 31079 0 0 0 0 2378 2378 0 377 377 325 325 0 0 0 2403 1765 638 0 655 655 0 0 0 4435 4435 0 7549 7549 1104 1104 0 11174 11174 2241 2241 RESCUE/RESTORATION CENTER COST 54318 54318 MINISTRY TRAININGS & AWARENESS 15685 15685 INVESTIGATIONS 8993 8993 INTERNET & TELEPHONE 4641 4641 9949 7621 2328 157306 152256 5050 0 133474 36665 84 0 0 0 0 0 0 4013 0 283163 19383 107270 263780 0 0 0 0 0 244757 300529 10351 2725 28767 26227 39118 28952 X 205639 271577 205639 271577 244757 300529 X 64618 1320 X false false false X 154365 176722 188554 235489 227418 982548 0 0 154365 176722 188554 235489 227418 982548 142610 839938 266 75 36 27 404 0 0 982952 0.85450 0.90190 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 36600 36600 213777 3172 210605 28986 16021 12965 3800 190 3610 263780 X 1 61157 FAIR MARKET VALUE false false false Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 11b All board members received an electronic copy of the 990 for review and approval prior to filing.
