San Bernardino County District Attorney Jason Anderson: District Attorney Anderson’s mission includes respecting and inspiring confidence in the rule of law both inside and outside the Office, collaboratively ensuring justice with excellence, integrity and compassion, stewarding public resources to hold the guilty accountable, support victims of crime, and honoring the humanity of all involved in the criminal justice system, and restoring a culture of service and accountability to the San Bernardino County District Attorney’s Office.
Shuvette Marshall: Shuvette Marshall is a published children's book author, passionate advocate, and educator dedicated to empowering foster and at-promise youth. She holds a Bachelor's degree in Sociology from the University of California, San Bernardino, and is currently pursuing her Master’s degree at the same institution.

She has also led a breakout session for East Valley Selpa at the San Bernardino County Superintendents of Schools and served as a panelist at the Homeless Education State-wide Conference in both 2023 and 2024.
Shuvette is deeply committed to advocating for foster and at-promise youth across Southern California, traveling to various conferences to raise awareness and provide support. Her mission is to inspire students, showing them that no matter their challenges, success is always possible. Through her work, she strives to demonstrate the importance of finding the "why" in both her journey and the lives of children.
Nola Brantley: Nola Brantley is the Founder & CEO of Nola Brantley Speaks is best known as a nationally acclaimed advocate who has played a large role in spear-heading the Commercial Sexual Exploitation of Children awareness and advocacy movement in the state of California since 2004. Nola has traveled the continuum of abuse that many sex trafficking victims and survivors have traveled. Nola has become nationally recognized as a powerful voice for the issue of child sex trafficking through her moving and information packed public speaking.
Her experience with the compounded risk factors of poverty, unaddressed trauma, intergenerational abuse, foster care involvement and misuse of authority all serve to give Nola a powerful firsthand understanding not only of the CSEC issue, but also of the underlying societal tapestry that creates and perpetuates the current epidemic of exploitation and violence plaguing the U.S.
Her hard work and perpetual vigilance has brought both focus and concrete resources to this chronically underserved and largely unrecognized population of victimized youth. She has taught innovative aftercare methods for abuse survivors to individuals from around the world.
Currently Nola is working as a child sex trafficking subject matter expert and a sought after master-trainer through her consultancy company Nola Brantley Speaks where she has trained over 250,000 professionals and community members to date.
