A Step to Freedom (ASF)

We are deeply grateful to Pacific Premier Bank and the Federal Home Loan Bank of San Francisco for awarding us, A Step to Freedom (ASF), a 2024 AHEAD Program grant of $100,000. This incredible investment will significantly strengthen our efforts to boost economic vitality in Los Angeles by empowering justice-impacted and homeless individuals with the resources, support, and opportunities they need to thrive. This partnership underscores the power of collaboration in creating lasting change. Together, we’re addressing critical issues like housing stability, workforce development, and family reunification, building a brighter future for our community. Thank you for believing in ASF’s mission and for joining us in transforming lives across Los Angeles. ?? #ASFImpact #CommunitySupport #EconomicVitality #PartnershipForChange #EndHomelessness 4o

The homeless population in Los Angeles County decreased by 0.27% to 75,312, and in the city of Los Angeles by 2.2% to 45,252. This was the first time in six years that homelessness in Los Angeles has decreased. However, we are still fighting to end it altogether, until then we’re doing everything we can to help our community! You can help us too but donating or volunteering. #volunteering #donate #asteptofreedom #warmthestreetsla #blanketdrive

Research published in the American Journal of Community Psychology shows that providing stable housing can reduce recidivism rates by up to 40%. Our unhoused neighbors can now be ticketed or arrested for sleeping outside, even when there's nowhere else to go. We're committed to turning the tide, but we need your support to make a difference. Will you support us in reducing recidivism and ending homelessness? #endingpoverty #blanketdrive #WarmTheStreets #DonateNow #homelessness #ASFImpact #asteptofreedom #serve
