3Strands Global Foundation

About this Organization
Email
info@3sgf.org

3Strands Global Foundation was founded in response to an event that shook a small, tight-knit California community. A young girl was trafficked for 8 days before she was recovered by law enforcement. This would later spark the creation of PROTECT prevention education, which has gone on to educate hundreds of thousands of students on how to stay safe from human trafficking.

The 3SGF team then recognized that there needed to be more resources available to survivors and those who face barriers to sustainable economic opportunities. With this in mind, 3SGF launched the Employ + Empower program, which has helped support and economically empower hundreds of individuals.

Herstory

About this Organization

Herstory is a volunteer-run platform designed primarily for adult female survivors of sexual assault. Majority of survivors are not able to define their experience. Our objective is to bridge the gap, and first and foremost provide survivors of sexual assault with the information you need to make sense of what happened. We also share resources to help you navigate your options and take action—when you are ready and should you choose to do so. We reviewed hundreds of resources around sexual assault from scientific articles to social listening to form a well rounded, evidence- and real-world based picture of the issue. We’ve digested the key information into Herstory so that you have access to it all in one place. On our website, you can also download the free Herstory Sexual Assault Guide.

StarVista Crisis Center

About this Organization
Email
svcrisiscenter@star-vista.org

Our crisis hotline was founded in 1966 by suicide prevention pioneer, Charlotte Ross. It was the third crisis line founded in the state of California, with the goal of provide emergency assistance to people who were not in a medical crisis. Charlotte believed that the help given on a crisis line should be: Provided by crisis workers trained in suicide prevention and intervention, Available 24 hours a day, Confidential, Temporary in nature, Free of charge.

Our crisis hotline functions with those same tenets as when it was first founded. While our services have expanded, many of those tenets and our overall philosophy still apply. We believe that “crisis” is a normal part of life that an individual can experience. Sometimes, that crisis is too overwhelming for that person to handle alone. The purpose of our services is to help support that individual in the short-term, and empower them to find long-term support and solutions.

Power to Decide

About this Organization
Email
info@powertodecide.org

Power to Decide (originally known as The National Campaign to Prevent Teen Pregnancy) was founded in 1996 in response to President Clinton’s 1995 State of the Union call to reduce teen pregnancy rates. At the time, the rate of teen pregnancy in the U.S. exceeded most developed countries and was viewed by the President as the nation’s most pressing domestic issue. 

Since peaking in the early 1990s, birth rates among teens ages 15-19 have declined 72%. According to final birth data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), in 2018 the teen birth rate hit a record low of 17.4 births per 1,000 females (down from 61.8 births per 1,000 in 1991).  

Despite dramatic declines in teen pregnancies and births over the past two decades, approximately 45% of pregnancies to women of all ages are unplanned. To address the contrasting trends of declines in teen pregnancies and steady or increasing rates of unintended pregnancy among people in their 20s, we expanded our mission in 2005 and became the National Campaign to Prevent Teen and Unplanned Pregnancy.
