Young Women’s Freedom Center is a non-profit based in San Francisco, California, founded in 1993, that supports and advocates for young women and trans youth of all genders who have experienced poverty, the juvenile legal and foster care systems, street life, and significant violence. The organization provides mentorship, training, employment opportunities, and advocacy aimed at building personal and collective power, healing from trauma, and transforming systems and policies that perpetuate cycles of violence, incarceration, and poverty. Its work centers on meeting clients where they are—on the streets, in jails and detention centers, and within their communities—and aims to help them access education and work while empowering them to self-determine their lives. The group operates within the broader non-profit sector and focuses on elevating directly impacted youth to drive positive change in their communities.
