Stephanie's Loss: A Mother's Life Taken by Pills
"In this heartfelt and emotional PSA, Stephanie opens up about the devastating loss of her mother to a fatal overdose. Through her deeply personal story, Stephanie sheds light on the harsh reality of the opioid crisis and the profound impact it has on families. Her testimony is a powerful call to action, urging us to recognize the seriousness of this epidemic and the importance of supporting those in need. This video is a tribute to her mother and a plea to prevent other families from experiencing the same tragic loss." This video was created with love by Andy Q of the SoCalServiceCorps.org

Street Outreach Events July-December 2024
From July to December 2024, Project Resilience successfully hosted a series of Taco Nights Outreach events, engaging directly with individuals affected by sexual exploitation. Through these compassionate street outreach efforts, we:
Reached hundreds of women with care, connection and consistencyProvided basic necessities, resource referrals, and gift cards to support immediate needs
Fostered trust and safety in vulnerable communities through nonjudgemental, trauma-informed interactions.
These outreach nights have become a vital bridge to ongoing support services, recovery pathways, and community healing. We’re deeply grateful to our volunteers, donors, and community partners for making this possible. -
