REST exists to provide pathways of freedom, safety and hope to people who have been exploited for commercial sex and people involved in the sex trade in Seattle and beyond. 0 0 385208 0 0 The House: Prior to establishing our restorative housing program, there were no residential services specifically designed to meet the unique needs of sexually exploited young women, ages 18-24 in King County. In September 2012, we opened our pilot program with two beds. Based on the success of our pilot year, we expanded to six beds in a larger residential property in December 2013. Our long-term residential housing program is a place where young women can begin to dream again of a new life and receive individualized services including specialized wraparound case management, education, life skills, vocational training, limited medical and dental, transportation and bus fare, food, clothing, allowances, incentives, support, counseling, survivor support and more. Residents can stay up to two years at no cost to the resident. During the year, REST provided housing for 15 residents who stayed 1,544 nights. All of them participated in survivor support services, case management and life skills classes. Six of them reached the milestone of being out of the set trade for one year. 637985 0 0 Emergency Receiving Center (ERC): Effective, immediately available, emergency shelter tailored to victims of trafficking is almost nonexistent and is a frustration for both social service organizations and law enforcement who are trying to help victims escape rather than detain them or release them back to their trafficker. This is a significant gap in essential services. For more than a year, REST has been preparing to open a 24/7 Emergency Receiving Center specifically tailored to meet the unique needs of this population and provide immediate shelter, assessment, and support. The ERC will provide an immediate, 30-60 days stabilization opportunity for up to 8 young women at a time in hopes to connect them to long-term services. In addition to the physical shelter, the ERC program operates Seattle area's only 24/7 crisis intervention hotline and hosts drop-in services 4 days a week. 152 individuals visited our drop-in center. 71 drop-in guest participated in groups, classes and workshops 368 times. 1,457 nights of REST were provided at our shelter 348605 0 0 The Advocates: Community Advocacy & Direct Outreach - Sexually exploited young women are largely unreached and rarely access services during normal business hours. We build trust through being present, consistent, and meeting basic needs in places where girls and women are frequently sexually exploited such as at bikini barista stands and on the streets in areas of high trafficking activity. We sent over 8,100 texts and received over 440 positive responses over the course of the year. Over 60 respondents requested a meeting with an advocate. Prevention - Our Prevention team works in area juvenile detention centers and high schools teaching an anti-trafficking and sexual exploitation curriculum, mentorship and chaplaincy in an effort to detour youth from participating in the activities and attitudes that lead to trafficking. This year, the REST Prevention team facilitated 22 anti-trafficking workshops at juvenile detention centers, with over 154 youth in attendance. 0 0 0 1371798 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 1 35 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 7 7 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 X Rudy Vazquez 4253954691 4215 Rainier Ave South Suite B Seattle WA 98118 Brent Turner Chairman of the Board 5 0 X X 0 0 0 Karen Cobb Secretary of the Board 0.5 0 X X 0 0 0 Tim Gaydos Board Member 0.5 0 X 0 0 0 Will Little Board Member 0.5 0 X 0 0 0 Renee Wallace Board Member 0.5 0 X 0 0 0 Zach Davis Board Member 2.5 0 X 0 0 0 Amanda Hightower Executive Director 60 0 X 117501 0 0 Bridget Battistoni Director of Operations & Finance 60 0 X 104264 0 0 221765 0 0 2 0 0 0 0 0 0 3518 0 0 1300625 104063 1304143 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 293657 3518 77250 216407 0 216407 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1520550 0 0 216407 X 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 274000 166264 55505 52231 0 0 0 0 824580 682656 6975 134949 73670 59535 2647 11488 95300 74577 4901 15822 5283 13 5270 0 18074 15705 623 1746 35 35 27751 25736 401 1614 30964 21128 1106 8730 410 263 13 134 128020 121717 2395 3908 6027 3943 122 1962 2274 2274 6037 5610 -939 1366 Client Care 55452 55452 0 0 Furniture & Furnishings 8340 8340 0 0 Printing 13672 10130 752 2790 Renovations 39647 39647 0 0 147984 78808 490 68686 1757520 1371798 80261 305461 310168 194418 0 0 0 0 0 18360 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 11369 5685 7958 5684 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 318126 218462 3098 40620 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 100000 0 0 0 0 0 3098 140620 X 315028 77842 0 0 0 0 315028 77842 318126 218462 X -236970 0 0 0 0 -216 X 0 0 0 X 101880 589397 880656 1181902 1597800 4351635 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 101880 589397 880656 1181902 1597800 4351635 265088 4086547 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 477 16414 0 16891 4368526 0 0.93545 0 X Schedule A, Part II, Line 10 Net Income from Fundraising Events RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 11369 5685 5684 5684 A Night of Rest 240784 0 240784 0 0 4750 33105 14293 70232 Spring Event 18394 0 18394 0 0 0 190 1541 1973 3 34479 3518 30961 0 0 0 4836 0 5045 293657 3518 290139 0 0 4750 38131 15834 77250 135965 154174 Brent Turner Chairman of the Board X 100000 100000 0 1 1 100000 Brent Turner Chairman of the Board 100000 Loan to the Organization 0 Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 11b A copy of the 990 is provided to the board for review after filing.
