About


 
We represent a diverse collective of individuals, including parents, children, and caretakers, all of whom have personally grappled with the complexities of family policing. Our unity is forged in a shared purpose: we are community organizers and advocates with a profound commitment to championing the welfare of families. Beyond merely raising awareness, our core mission revolves around active participation in the realm of community organizing. Drawing strength from our collective experiences, our foremost aim is to illuminate the deeply entrenched issues of intergenerational and transgenerational trauma that continue to cast a shadow over our communities.
