About JABEL

Our Mission

"Ending Lies to Empowering Lives"

At JABEL, our mission is rooted in Anabel’s personal journey as a survivor of human trafficking, sexual assault, and domestic violence. As a victim advocate, her work is centered on empowering survivors by providing the tools, guidance, and training necessary to help them rebuild their lives and move forward with strength and dignity. We are committed to offering survivors the resources they need to foster self-sufficiency and healing.

JABEL takes a survivor-led approach, offering vocational training, survivor scholarships, and personal development programs in collaboration with local businesses. These programs help survivors transition out of exploitative situations, build practical skills, and reclaim their self-worth. Our goal is to support survivors in finding a pathway to long-term success and independence.

What sets JABEL apart is our survivor-led philosophy, which shapes every aspect of our work. We focus on helping individuals overcome the trauma of their past, guiding them toward a brighter and more empowered future.

JABEL’s core values are empowerment, accountability, and the belief that survivors can lead positive, fulfilling lives when given the right support. Through collaboration with survivors, nonprofits, and law enforcement, we are dedicated to breaking the cycles of abuse and exploitation, offering survivors the chance to reclaim their futures and make meaningful contributions to their communities.

Operation FAFO!

OPERATION FAFO LEADS TO OVER 100 ARRESTS IN MAJOR HUMAN TRAFFICKING AND PROSTITUTION STING, TWO JUVENILES RESCUED

A multi-agency human trafficking and prostitution sting operation led by the Sacramento County Sheriff’s Office has resulted in the arrest of over 100 individuals and the rescue of two juveniles from the sex trade. The operation, which took place over two days, was part of a concentrated effort to combat human trafficking and exploitation in Sacramento County.

During the sting, law enforcement officers posed as undercover buyers and sellers, identifying those involved in illegal activities. The operation targeted individuals who exploit vulnerable people for commercial sex, with a particular focus on rescuing juveniles forced into prostitution.

Over 100 individuals were arrested on charges related to prostitution, solicitation, and trafficking. The operation also led to the identification and rescue of two juveniles, both 16-years-old, who were being trafficked for sex. These young victims are now receiving care and services to help them recover from their traumatic experiences and transition to a safer, healthier environment.

Sheriff Cooper praised the successful operation, stating:

“This sting sends a clear message to those involved in the illegal sex trade: we are committed to protecting our community from exploitation, especially our most vulnerable. Human trafficking, especially the exploitation of minors, is a serious crime, and we will continue to work tirelessly to bring justice to victims.”

The Sheriff’s Office Special Investigations Bureau (SIB) Detectives, collaborated with the North, South, East and the Rancho Cordova Police Department Problem Oriented Policing (POP) Teams, Sacramento County Special Enforcement Detail (SED), Rancho Cordova Police Crime Suppression Unit (CSU), Sheriff’s Work Project, the Sheriff’s Drone Unit, California Highway Patrol SACCATS, the California Department of Justice Human Trafficking Team, and victim advocate groups Drive for Impact and the Sacramento Family Justice Center to make this operation a success. The team utilized less conventional resources, including drone technology, intelligence gathering, and readily available resources for victims to ensure the operation’s success. The Sheriff’s Office urges the public to remain vigilant and report any suspicious activity related to human trafficking.

If you or someone you know is a victim of human trafficking, please contact the Sheriff’s Office at 916-874-5115 for help and resources.

Authorized Possessor

Did you know that even if you purchased your child’s phone and pay for their monthly service, it doesn’t mean you automatically own the data and contents on the phone? In California, just having physical possession of the phone isn’t enough for law enforcement to access its contents. If you take the phone to the police and ask them to access it, they can’t do so unless you have your child’s passwords and regular access to the device. Without these, law enforcement would need written consent from your child to access the phone’s contents.

This is known as "authorized possessor" in California. To avoid potential issues, it's crucial to regularly check your child’s phone and have their passwords. Remember, your role is to be a parent, not just a friend!
