Who We Are

Forward to Freedom LLC is a resource and education company committed to equipping youth and those who serve them with practical tools for building safe and healthy relationships. Our materials are designed to help young people recognize unsafe or manipulative behavior and prevent all forms of abuse, trafficking, and exploitation.

What We Do

At Forward to Freedom, we believe prevention begins with awareness and education. We offer accessible, age-appropriate content that helps youth understand the difference between safe, strange, and dangerous behavior—giving them language, context, and confidence to make informed choices in friendships, romantic relationships, work environments, and online spaces.

Our Resources

Our first resource is the book Safe Behavior, Strange Behavior, a straightforward guide that empowers teens to spot red flags, talk about boundaries, and ask for help when needed. It’s ideal for use in schools, nonprofits, community centers, or one-on-one mentoring relationships.

We are continuing to develop tools and companion materials for educators, parents, and youth leaders who want to make a lasting impact in their communities.

Our Commitment

We are committed to a future where youth thrive—not just survive. Every product we create is rooted in trauma-informed principles, culturally aware guidance, and real-world application. Whether you’re a parent, educator, nonprofit leader, or mentor, we’re here to support your mission to protect and empower the next generation.

Mission Statement

Forward to Freedom equips young people with the knowledge and tools they need to build safe, healthy relationships and protect themselves from abuse, exploitation, and trafficking. Through relevant resources and education, we empower youth to recognize danger, set boundaries, and move confidently toward a future of freedom and dignity.
