“Even in the darkest moments, light is breaking in. And the women feel it.” Because Justice Matters Impact Report

In the dim hallways and loud rooms of adult clubs, BJM EdenMade’s simple prayer circles turned moments into tender, shared acts of faith, like praying in the heart language of a woman whose mother was ill.

One of the most profound moments was when a dancer, after years of schooling, training, and preparation to leave the club, introduced herself to us by her real name…a small but powerful step toward reclaiming her life.” BJM staff on the impact of EdenMade a program that walks with women in adult entertainment

Because Justice Matters is planting a church in the heart of San Francisco. The church will reflect the community’s language, culture, schedules and neighborhood life. The neighborhood's dreams and prayers for this became clear in conversations at regular gatherings of shared meals, Bible study, and worship. BJM is moving towards monthly family gatherings at a partner church combining information, training, prayer, and worship.

The Because Justice Matters Creative Arts team meets students where they are developmentally and emotionally to blend creativity, discipleship, and character development A custom evaluation co-developed by BJM and SEED revealed that over half of participants (20 out of 39) reached “like to see” results. In practice, this means girls are staying year over year, showing up on time and prepared, and stepping into leadership roles. Another 10 reached “love to see” - cultivating their artist voice in praise and worship while helping teach others. BJM coaches’ consistent, transformational relationships help the girls convey their spiritual truths.

Meet Because Justice Matters (BJM), a SEED Impact client building pathways toward brighter futures with young adults, girls, parents and women in the adult entertainment industry.

BJM celebrates a community in motion with discipleship, leadership development, and pastoral care. Young adults lead the Azul Cohort. Girls in the Creative Arts classes worship and engage in Spirit-led conversations. Women in EdenMade are reminded of their identity and value. Mentors gather and connect through IGNITE and SHINE. And a new church plant is growing out of the long-term presence and relationships formed in weekly Bible studies, dance classes, and parent gatherings.

For over 18 years, BJM has created opportunities for restoration, expression, and growth for women and girls in the Tenderloin. And they are only getting started.
