    Human Trafficking is a Global Health Crisis that we all need to be aware of. We Run Oakland: For Children was formed because of the high incidence of trafficking in the city of Oakland and Alameda County. However, this issue is not unique to Oakland - the perils of trafficking impact many communities in CA and the United States. No matter what country, state, county, or city you live in, we should all share the humanitarian goal of protecting one another, especially the most vulnerable. To that end, we welcome you to have an Oakland mentality in this anti-trafficking movement. Build community power through awareness, conversation, advocacy, and action. There is even a virtual option to participate, so we have all our bases covered. We would love to see We Run Oakland in your city...We Run Oakland in (insert your city) _____, you fill in the blank!

    A Sista’s Touch (AST) & DopeOnly (DO) will be hosting our 7th Annual charity 5k run/walk, “We Run Oakland: For Our Children”, to raise human trafficking awareness. The event will be held on Saturday August 24, 2024, from 8am-12pm at Oakland Technical High School. While there are many causes to stand for, WE run and walk for the protection of our children against the greatest human rights violation of modern day time. The most effective way to protect our daughters/sons/grandchildren/nieces/nephews and our community, is to first recognize that human trafficking is a global public health crisis that requires community engagement to make an impact; AND to learn ways you can protect your family and others from the negative consequences to our community. This event is more than just a 5k, it is a family community event, designed to bridge community with resources to help prevent or to intervene where there is on risk of trafficking or exploitation. There are many ways to get involved: YOU can REGISTER to participate, YOU can INVITE others, YOU can DONATE, YOU can VOLUNTEER, and YOU can SHARE the information with family, friends, and professional organizations - We are always looking for Corporate Sponsors. The fight to stop human trafficking begins with YOU! Register now at: https://lnkd.in/gsE_parA Contact us at: Info@asistastouch.org

    I am calling on all champions for youth to sign up, spread the word, and fight against sex trafficking of children. It’s real. It’s happening in our communities. It’s up to all of us to stop it. Sign up as an individual or partner with friends, family, or coworkers. It’s a fun and healthy experience for a cause worth fighting against! ACSO will be there - 7 years strong! https://lnkd.in/g2Xy7NNn #childsafety #asistastouch #communitysafety #welovekids

    I am honored to wear multiple hats in the community. Serving in any way that allows me to build and empower girls and other women gives me great fulfillment. Today, A Sista's Touch (AST) hosted Cohort 7 - "A Sista's Always Prepared: Puberty to Queen Edification Workshop" at Kaiser Permanente Oakland. Its success was due to community partnerships and collaboration with other service-minded individuals. Thank you to Dr. Ross, a fantastic pediatrician at Children's Hospital, and everyone who attended and contributed to making it a positive and empowering experience. AST is committed to providing essential and valuable resources for our community. We can't wait for Cohort 8, scheduled for October 2024. Visit asistastouch.org for information on how you can get involved in upcoming events and workshops! #Empowerment #CommunityHealth #PubertyWorkshop #KaiserPermanenteOakland #AST #ASistasTouch
