Foster girls become extremely vulnerable to exploitation in the U.S. starting at age 12.
Sex trafficking is when a person is manipulated, exploited, or forced into sex for another’s profit against their will.
A trafficker (aka “pimp”) preys on youth by flirting on social media or in person. Over 60% of trafficking victims recovered in an FBI nationwide raid were children from foster care.
The Bay Area…
One of the nation’s largest hubs for sex trafficking
In a city full of dreamers,
more than 7,000 foster children live a nightmare.

R//R partners with local organizations to directly meet the needs of foster youth who have been trafficked, or are vulnerable to it, as they transition out of the foster care system into independent living.
HUMAN TRAFFICKING IS EVERYWHERE
It’s Hiding in Plain Sight
Here are some eye-opening facts …
The life of ONE
Children without families to make them feel loved and cared for are most vulnerable to trafficking.
Thousands of children between the ages of 18-21 must leave foster care unsupported each year. Often they have no diploma or job experience and must live independently. They’re expected to find housing in the Bay Area—the most expensive in the nation—as well as feed and clothe themselves with no real guidance.
The impact of ONE
One of the avenues to meeting the needs of vulnerable foster youth is through our mentorship program. By connecting the youth to their very own ‘mentor mom’ they receive necessary guidance.
The mentor believes in the youth’s full potential and is trained to teach life skills. They help them secure a diploma or degree, and work to connect them to an internship or entry-level position for a career that aligns with the youth’s talents and interests.
We fight for the ONE
Each ONE of us can reach ONE as we serve the ONE.
We believe every person is created with love for a purpose.
Our Dream Team is a tight-knit group of freedom-fighters who work with a broad network to create paths that meet the needs of each foster girl we serve—with the goal of allowing her the freedom to dream.
We know that ONE small action by each person leads to life-long change.
In the end two are better than one. If either of them falls down, one can help the other up. Though one may be overpowered, two can defend themselves. A cord of three or more is not easily broken.
