PREVENTION:In 2018, we continued to develop tools for prevention, including (1) teen resources through our www.IAmJasmineStrong.com website and animation and (2) caregiver resources. (1) We launched www.IAmJasmineStrong.com, a youth-to-youth website and animation that supports youth in the Bay Area in learning about sexual exploitation. We secured over $590K of donated outdoor advertising space for the campaign, presented it to the California School Boards Association, and piloted the educators guide in San Francisco and Washington, D.C. Upon launch, we had over 14,000 video views. (2) We also developed a toolkit that will support caregivers in having proactive conversations with their children to prevent trafficking. In 2018, we piloted the toolkit and presented it at two major conferences. Reimagining Foster Care for Teens in San Francisco In 2018, Freedom Forward began to explore how we might develop a new model for family-based foster care to support San Francisco pre-teens and teens who have endured the most, and yet experienced the least stability: youth who have been impacted by things like complex trauma, other mental health issues, the juvenile justice system, unstable housing and placements, and commercial sexual exploitation. These are the youth who are often sent out of state or into congregate care facilities. We conducted a nationwide review of promising practices, hosted a convening with professionals in the field, and conducted listening sessions with youth and foster caregivers to begin to co-create a new model of care for San Francisco teens with a variety of organic and professional supports. YOUTH LEADERSHIP:Forward Fellows are powerful young leaders, working to shift the narratives and systems that affect the lives of youth impacted by trafficking and/or the underground street economy in San Francisco. Supported by Freedom Forward and the Young Womens Freedom Center, they pursue a year of paid, healing-centered leadership workshops, serve as the first Youth Advisory Board for the San Francisco Mayors Task Force on Anti-Human Trafficking, and develop projects to affect their visions of change. In 2018 Fellows advised on a set of housing recommendations, which were approved by the SF Mayor's Task Force on Anti-Human Trafficking. One Fellow was published in the Chronicle of Social Change and fellows were honored by Senator Feinstein. Hub and CollaborationIn 2018, we chaired the Youth Trafficking Committee of the San Francisco Mayors Task Force on Anti-Human Trafficking and supported a community of likeminded organizations by providing free coworking space to Foster America, an organization transforming the child welfare system, and Justice at Last, a nonprofit law firm serving survivors of trafficking. We also secured a donation of a future space for three years to develop a youth drop-in center to co-locate services and continue our commitment to collaboration, cross pollination, and shared learning across organizations.
