Witnessing the devastating aftermath of the 2010 earthquake in Haiti was a turning point for my guest, Tiffany Loeffler, Founder and Executive Director of "The Alliance". She discovered a powerful calling to advocate for vulnerable children, which led her on a heartfelt journey through international adoption and inspired efforts within her Sacramento community. Tiffany's story unfolds as she navigates the emotional and legislative complexities of adopting from Haiti, while passionately working to heal and empower her children, now blossoming young adults, in their new lives in the United States.

That experience sprouted the origin and dynamic mission of an alliance, better yet, The Alliance, committed to addressing the root causes of trauma that afflict two-thirds of children by age 16. By fostering collaboration among caregivers, educators, and social workers, this initiative fills systemic gaps, supporting foster youth, refugees, and more across five counties in the Sacramento area. Through targeted events and innovations like the "Night to Celebrate," members unite to share resources and strengthen community bonds, showcasing the tremendous impact of collective action.

We'll discuss how The Alliance is revolutionizing philanthropic connections without the traditional reliance on cold calls. This collective amplifies its reach through meaningful relationships and strategic partnerships, laying plans to expand its support network to even more nonprofits and churches. With future projects like a job board and counselor directory in sight, we touch on the profound effects of dedicated community work of multiple agencies working together for the greater good and support of the families and protecting the vulnerability of children.
