Your coffee is doing something you can’t see from the counter.☕️
For survivors of human trafficking, there’s help with housing, health, and sobriety. What’s harder to find is a first job, and in a city as expensive as San Diego, that income matters.
That’s why we built an employment program as a leaping-off point: real training, real skills, and support finding what comes next.
When you order from Talitha, you’re part of that. You’re helping someone start again, one cup at a time.🤍

Talitha had the honor of being part of the press conference for the Binational Race: the cross-border half marathon that connects San Diego and Tijuana through sport, culture, and community. ☕🇺🇸🇲🇽
This year’s race is growing even more, with a brand-new 12K route joining the half marathon, so there’s a way for more runners to be part of the experience.
We’re proud to stand alongside organizers, sponsors, and runners building something that reminds us what’s possible when two communities show up for each other.
📅 Race day: October 25 | San Diego → Tijuana
☕ More to come from us as the race gets closer!

Change doesn’t happen in one place. It happens in the ripple.
This month we’re spotlighting Compassion First an organization providing safe homes, trauma-informed care, and a real path to healing for girls who’ve survived s*x trafficking.
It’s the same heartbeat behind every bag of Talitha coffee: craft that funds compassion, and coffee that creates opportunity.
We’re proud to stand alongside partners like them!🤎

There’s something special about showing up for a community that shows up for itself.
We set up shop at the 8 Miller in Balboa Park, poured a lot of coffee, and met some genuinely lovely people along the way.
This is why we do what we do. ☕️🏃🏻♀️🏃🏻

Talitha Coffee – Fifth Avenue (San Diego)
Public transport (recommended)
1. Use the San Diego Trolley to get to the nearest stop on the Blue Line or Orange Line, then transfer to a bus for the final stretch toward Fifth Avenue.
2. From the trolley/bus drop-off point, walk along Fifth Avenue toward the shop area (expect a short 5–15 minute walk depending on which stop you use).
3. For best routing, search “Fifth Ave San Diego” in your transit app and select routes that include a bus segment near downtown/central Fifth Avenue.
Driving directions
1. From I-5: Take the exit toward Downtown/San Diego city center, follow signs for Fifth Ave or nearby downtown streets, then continue to Fifth Avenue.
2. From I-8: Follow signs into Downtown/San Diego; merge onto local downtown routes that connect to Fifth Ave.
3. Once on Fifth Avenue, drive slowly through traffic and look for nearby metered street parking or garages.
Parking options
1. Street parking: Limited metered spots are typically available along and near Fifth Avenue; check posted time limits and payment requirements.
2. Parking garages/lots: Multiple public garages are usually within a short walk of central Fifth Avenue—choose one with hourly rates that match your visit length.
3. Tip: Arrive earlier during peak hours (morning/late afternoon) since spaces can fill quickly in downtown areas.
Accessibility note
- Most routes involve walking from transit stops; sidewalks and crosswalks are generally available around central Fifth Avenue, but curb ramps vary by block—use caution when crossing busy intersections.
