History
The Love Never Fails organization was formed in December 2011 after the Founder's teenage dance student experienced human trafficking in the SF Bay Area. Our Board of Directors and Advisory Board include thriving survivors and their families, business owners, teachers, social workers, Pastors, local government executives, attorneys, health care workers, etc. All of our non-profit Board and Advisory members are engaged voluntarily. We are committed to all youth's well-being and driven to restore education and protect them from sex trafficking.
