Human Trafficking is happening right here in our own backyard—hidden in plain sight.

We invite you to an evening of reflection, hope, and community action at our “Rally for Survivors”. Join the SB County Human Trafficking Task Force, Kingdom Causes, and more as we take a stand for change for those who have survived human and labor trafficking.

Survivors of human trafficking matter... and it’s crucial that we fight to change our legal system’s understanding of trafficking issues so that survivors receive the care and support they need.

Our community is stronger when we look out for the vulnerable. RSVP at safesbc.org/getinvolved

This year asked a lot of all of us, and we couldn’t have made it through without every single one of you.

We want to extend our deepest thanks to our supporters, donors, volunteers, and everyone who makes this work possible. Your belief in us and our mission carried us through a challenging year. From our SB ACT family to yours—happy holidays!

We are so grateful to share SB ACT’s 2024–2025 Annual Report with you. This was a year that asked a lot of us, and one that reminded me again of the strength of our community.

We navigated real uncertainty together this spring when the FARO Center shifted to a month-to-month agreement. Even in the midst of change, our team, partners, donors, volunteers, and YOU, continued to show up with compassion and determination. Your support ensured FARO could remain a lifeline for hundreds of neighbors seeking stability, care, and hope.

Because of you, SB ACT helped 1,340 neighbors connect to essential services, supported 121 people into permanent or interim housing, and enrolled 164 individuals in housing programs.

These numbers tell part of the story — but, as always, what means most to me is the collective effort behind them. In a world where hope is threatened daily, these are the stories that reignite us to imagine a different future and fight for that vision. It is your trust, generosity, and belief in this future that makes everything possible.

Thank you for standing with us. I hope you’ll take a moment to read the report and see the impact we created together. Go to www.sbact.org/news to read the full report!

This holiday season reminds us of what really matters: community, hope, and kindness.
