Florida Faith Alliance, a statewide nonprofit dedicated to ending child trafficking through education, prevention, and community collaboration, announces an inspiring evening of purpose, fellowship, and advocacy with its inaugural Boots on the Ground 2026 Dinner & Line Dance event. 

Set for Friday, January 16, 2026, from 6:00 to 8:30 PM at The Barn, 6851 Oleander Avenue, Port Saint Lucie, FL 34952, this event invites community leaders, faith partners, activists, and concerned citizens to unite and mobilize against the exploitation of children in our communities.
