Accountability
We are accountable to Pastor Tim Chaddick and the people of REALITY LA church in Hollywood/Los Angeles, California. www.realityla.com

About our founders
Laurie went through the BADD (Born Again and Delivered Disciples) discipleship program and graduated in March 2003, where she went on to serve at the Los Angeles Dream Center. www.dreamcenter.org She led the Prostitute Outreach there for over 31/2 years. Daryl led the outreach with Laurie after they were married in 2004.

Mission statement
Our mission is to reach out and minister to hurting individuals involved in criminal activities as well as their family members and friends. Our focus will be on Los Angeles first but not limited to this area. We hope to grow and expand to the nation.

Examples of the individuals we will reach out to are prostitutes, pimps, gang members, and drug and substance addicts. Also those involved with habitual criminal activity, their family members, loved ones and friends. At this present time, we are specifically reaching out to pimps and prostitutes.

Once or twice a week (daytime during the week, Fridays at night) we go to different “tracks” (streets where the prostitutes work) and give gift bags to the girls, in the hopes of developing relationships with them. Unfortunately, it is rare that we see the same girl more than 2-3 times after meeting them. They are frequently moved from city to city by their pimps.
We bring the gospel of Jesus Christ and the message of salvation to where the people are at – the streets, alleys, and jail cells – and also reach their physical needs as well as their spiritual and emotional needs.

We train, educate and inspire people to get involved and make a difference – taking back what they have learned from us to their community in an effort to combat criminal activity with networking ministries and the gospel of Jesus Christ.
