Show some love! We've officially kicked off our Power Building Cohort, a 10-month journey that brings together leaders from across our network to sharpen strategies and build stronger intergenerational organizing campaigns. Our #NoKidsInPrison movement is stronger because of the people in this room.

We're witnessing a nationwide reversal of years of progress as many states roll back legislation and move to charge youth as adults -- a practice that ignores science about adolescent development and has been proven ineffective, racist and devastating to families.

The fight for freedom is a powerful legacy, and today, that struggle continues for young people across our nation. The U.S. still relies on incarceration to control and constrict the lives of nearly 25,000 young people every year.

Trump’s ICE raids and military presence in Los Angeles represent a direct threat to family unity and community safety, and they profoundly undermine the values of freedom and individual rights our nation claims to uphold. We stand with LA.

Gun violence is a leading cause of youth incarceration, but locking kids up is NOT the answer. We know what works: investing in solutions that address the root causes of harm. Swipe to see how community-based programs are actually making our communities safer and transforming lives. #NoKidsInPrison

When young people have access to safe, stable housing and consistent support systems, we see that they thrive in school and have the chance to build skills necessary for the future.

Swipe to see the data about how youth who don’t get these supports typically fare.

Youth prisons don’t build futures, they break spirits. There have been rampant reports of abuse, harassment and neglect in juvenile detention centers across the country.

In Memphis’ Shelby County, Sheriff Bonner continues to delay a transition plan to support youth at the detention center.

Join us in calling on him to act now - young people continue to be abused and denied their right to due process as long as he delays! bit.ly/protectyouthrights901 #NoKidsInPrison
