Shepard & Stone exists to bring the hope of Jesus Christ into some of life's darkest places—standing alongside those impacted by human trafficking, addiction, and mental health struggles.
Our Mission
Meeting people in the darkness. Walking with them toward the Light.
Shepard & Stone is a Christ-centered organization committed to confronting human trafficking, substance abuse, and mental health struggles—through advocacy, compassionate connection to trusted resources, and the community of the Church. Like a shepherd, we go after the one. Like a cornerstone, we point to the only foundation strong enough to rebuild a life.

Why We Serve
Because Jesus went toward the broken. So will we.
Again and again, Jesus crossed every boundary to reach people who were hurting, forgotten, rejected, trapped, or without hope. He touched the untouchable and sat with the outcast. Shepard & Stone exists to follow His example—not from a distance, but by drawing near.
“Truly, I say to you, as you did it to one of the least of these my brothers, you did it to me.”
