Social Impact

The social impact of the SA Foundation is first noticeable on a global level: As charitable SA franchises are equipped and trained internationally by the Foundation, new program plants get up and running, offering services to greater numbers of young women and their children each year. Presently, between 1,500 to 2,000 women and children receive services through SA programs each year.

This global impact next has a ripple effect: No matter where an SA program model is located, it becomes instrumental in educating the helping professionals involved with sexually exploited/trafficked youth, women and their children!

Next, the community at large comes to appreciate the SA program model and welcomes it in their neighbourhood, and finally the funding community begins to see the benefit of long-term services and invest in the program.

All of this success leads to other cities desiring to implement the SA franchise – bringing the social impact of the SA Foundation full circle!
