As we wrap up another incredible year, we’re excited to highlight our amazing Spring 2026 interns! 🩵

Throughout the quarter, these students showed up for youth, families, and our community in countless ways. From culinary and school-based programming to restorative justice, mentorship, events, and behind-the-scenes support, they showed an amazing commitment to creating positive change.

We are so grateful for the time and talent they, and all of our Freedom 4 Youth Advocates at USCB, invested in Freedom 4 Youth this year. Watching them grow as leaders while building meaningful connections with young people has been a privilege. A special thank you to our Advocates Club Presidents, Braedon and Mary, for their incredible dedication throughout the year.

To our graduating seniors, congratulations on this exciting next chapter. To our international students, we wish you safe travels home, and to all of our members, we hope you have a wonderful summer!☀️ Thank you for being part of our community and helping make this year so special! #Freedom4Youth #UCSBAdvocates #YouthLeadership #RestorativeJustice #CommunityImpact

Beautiful day for a beach cleanup with our amazing community! 🌊☀️

Our youth and peer mentors had so much fun collaborating with @ucsb.propel to help care for our coastline in the spirit of Beautify Goleta by the City of Goleta.

Grateful for this partnership and for everyone who showed up to make a difference! 🏝️

Our Freedom 4 Youth Annual Volunteer Celebration at Goleta Beach was a beautiful day of connection, sunshine, and purpose. From volleyball to heartfelt conversations — and of course, incredible food — we came together to celebrate our youth and the community that stands behind them. 💛

This was the first time we brought out Freedom 4 Youth’s NEW Revolution Food Truck, and what better way to debut it than by serving the very youth who help bring it to life! 🎉 Many of our young people are part of our culinary program and catering team — so this wasn’t just a meal, it was a full-circle moment of growth, nourishment, and joy. ☀️

Special thanks to Chef Amanda, who absolutely crushed it — her flavors filled more than plates, they filled hearts. 💛

And deep love to our dedicated staff, UCSB advocates, and volunteers who show up for our mission day after day, and whose hard work made our Pathway to Freedom event such a powerful celebration and success. 🎉

Together, we’re creating a wave of change and a brighter future for our young people! 🌼
