(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. 960418 true true false false false false false false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false false false true false false false false true false false false true 12 0 true 3 true false false false false false false false false 0 false false false false false false false false false false false false X 3 2 false false false false false false false true true false false true true true true true false true false false CA X X ALIA WHITNEY-JOHNSON 8287777212 702 15th Street SAN FRANCISCO CA 94103 JAMEL PERKINS President 5.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 NATASHA DOLBY Secretary&TREAS 10.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 ALIA WHITNEY-JOHNSON Executive Dir. 50.00 0.00 X X 119388 0 0 119388 1 false false false 0 1192983 606233 1192983 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 Other Income 900099 3 3 3 1192986 3 28562 28562 4880 4880 0 0 119388 100594 15646 3148 0 63342 53373 8301 1668 0 11402 9492 1495 415 25763 21707 3377 679 0 2257 2257 7079 7079 0 0 0 6746 4000 2746 0 1048 1038 8 2 2276 2176 83 17 0 8672 8650 18 4 3627 2028 1599 0 2961 2792 122 47 68 68 0 0 4501 3792 590 119 In-Kind Tech & Media Supplies 606233 604921 1092 220 Program Contractors 58116 58116 Direct Program Expenses 35764 35764 Outreach 11171 11171 11653 7362 4005 286 1015509 960418 46887 8204 18853 224253 0 0 50000 10000 0 0 0 0 841 0 0 0 0 0 0 68853 235094 56367 8177 36954 56367 45131 X 12486 179963 10000 12486 189963 68853 235094 177477 X false false false X 250010 1192983 1442993 0 0 250010 1192983 1442993 683780 759213 0 0 3 3 1442996 X 0.00000 RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED Accrued payroll 8829 Accrued Payroll Taxes 24790 Accrued PTO 3335 36954 false Young Womens Freedom Center 832 Folsom Street Suite 700 San Francisco CA 94107 943227681 28562 0 Forward Fellows leadership training 0 1 Additional Supplemental Information Individual Stipends and Incentives for the total amount of $4,880.40 were also given to 60 individuals; varying amounts for different projects.
