Important Update

Free to Thrive Has Transitioned Its Services to San Diego Volunteer Lawyer Program

After years of serving survivors of human trafficking and advocating for justice, Free to Thrive has officially transferred our Vacatur Program to the San Diego Volunteer Lawyer Program (SDVLP) and Free to Thrive has brought its operations to a close.

While this marks the end of our chapter, our mission lives on through SDVLP, which will continue to provide vacatur legal services to human trafficking survivors and expand support to survivors of interpersonal violence, and sexual violence across San Diego.

If you are seeking vacatur legal services or looking to refer a potential client, please visit www.SDVLP.org for assistance.

We are deeply grateful to every survivor we’ve had the honor of serving, every donor and supporter who believed in our mission, and every community partner who stood with us in this work. Your support made it possible for Free to Thrive to help hundreds of survivors reclaim their freedom, rebuild their lives, and truly thrive.

Thank you for being part of our journey. Our story continues through the lives we’ve touched and the work that SDVLP will carry forward.
