The Los Angeles Fire Department is comprised of remarkable men and women who tirelessly and selflessly serve our communities every day. Therefore, we were pleased to receive a “plaque of appreciation” from Firehouse 33, recognizing the partnership between SoLa Impact and the Los Angeles County Fire Department. Over the years, we have worked closely with the LAFD to ensure not only our buildings are kept safe – identifying corrections before they happen, but have also offered our “to be demo-ed” buildings for the LAFD to train and use for their required exercises. Today, the plaque holds a special place in our office, serving as a constant reminder of our shared values and our mutual dedication to the safety and well-being of our community. #SoLaImpact #LAFD #SouthLA #LosAngelesFireDepartment

🌟Journey of Courage and Truth: My Story of Resilience🌟 At 44, I've found the courage to share a story I've hidden for decades. As one of the twelve girls at the Coke County Juvenile Justice Center in the '90s, my journey has been one of pain, silence, and eventual empowerment. This story isn't just mine. It's about Sara Lowe and many others who suffered in silence. Lured by promises of rehabilitation at Wackenhut's facility, we faced a reality far from what was pledged. Abuse, neglect, and a system that turned a blind eye - this was our truth. I was silenced once with money at 19, but the temporary glamour of wealth quickly faded, leaving me to confront the deeper scars of my experience. The loss of my best friend, who named my daughter, to suicide on the day of our lawsuit victory, was a turning point. It underscored a harsh reality: our fight was never about money; it was about justice and acknowledgment. Today, I stand to tell our story, not just for me but for Sara, who tragically couldn't bear the weight of her unacknowledged pain. It's a reminder that behind every corporate facade, there are human lives at stake. And while those responsible may not have faced consequences, our voices can now be heard. This post is more than a narrative of past woes; it's a call for accountability, change, and the protection of the innocent. Let's ensure no other child endures what we did. So when people think I’m absolutely bananas for saying I want to build a $200 million dollar theme park in Texas question my leverage, here you go. 💅🏼 I don’t think anybody wants me to make a big fuss about this, and I’m not trying to. I’m pretty sure I’m not gonna have any problems getting it done. 🤠 https://lnkd.in/gSd9e_Gi https://lnkd.in/gWFsrNkF #JusticeForSara #SurvivorStory #SpeakUp #Accountability #TexasYouthCommission #Wackenhut #Texas #juvenilejustice #TYC

Did you know there are 60 local NWTF chapters, in Tennessee? 61 if you include the state chapter, according to NWTF.org. There are 95 counties in Tennessee. What's that mean? There are opportunities to grow conservation efforts statewide! How? By getting involved and creating a new chapter in areas that don't have one. We have some awesome Regional Directors working in Tennessee that can help! The link is to the Chapter Guide manual and has solid information on how to get started. https://lnkd.in/d_sGbv4M

🌟 Taller Salud: Making Strides in Community Safety 🌟 For the past 11 years, Taller Salud's Peace and Development initiative has been a beacon of hope for the town of Loiza, Puerto Rico. Their tireless efforts have resulted in an astounding 82% reduction in lethal violence within the community. It's high time our government recognizes the power of alternative justice methods. The Acuerdo de Paz model is a testament to the potential of restorative justice. Let's emulate this success throughout Puerto Rico, addressing the root causes of violence. This means dismantling institutional racism, providing top-tier education, improving public transportation, ensuring quality healthcare, and fostering economic opportunities. Reading about the progress made in Los Angeles is a source of inspiration. The Watts truce of 1992, a groundbreaking peace agreement between rival gangs, led to a remarkable 44% drop in gang-related murders in the area within the first two years. Aqeela Sherrills, a key negotiator of this truce, shares his extraordinary journey from Watts to the forefront of community-based public safety efforts, even collaborating with the White House on preventing gun violence. Let's continue to forge paths toward safer, more inclusive communities. 🤝 Learn more: https://buff.ly/3LLghq7 Via: #ForeignPolicy #TallerSalud #PazYDesarrollo #PYD #CommunitySafety #RestorativeJustice #PuertoRicoStrong

REIQ CEO Antonia Mercorella on what it takes to stand up to domestic and family violence: “Domestic and family violence is an issue that requires courage on behalf of every single Australian to help eradicate it. It’s all too easy to say that what happens in the domestic sphere behind closed doors is ‘private’ and we shouldn’t ‘stick our nose in’ others business, but that is a mindset that needs to be shattered if we ever hope to break the cycle of DFV in our communities. I have no doubt that real estate professionals have the heart and the courage necessary to make a significant difference in this space.” Improve your response to DFV by doing the online, interactive, self-paced course for real estate professionals developed by Q Shelter in partnership with the SafeHome Alliance and the REIQ: https://lnkd.in/exwjbS3X

Every year, we host our annual Night Out for Safety and Liberation as a space for folks to imagine what safety looks like without policing. This year is no exception. Join us this Tuesday, August 1, from 6-9 outside of Austin City Hall! And guess what? The Austin city budget is also on the same day, and they want to send us back to the 90s, a time defined by over-policing and mass criminalization. They're calling it a "Back to Basics" budget. If you do not want a “Back to Basics” budget -- and instead want to move forward with root-cause solutions to Austin’s most urgent problems, register against the Austin City Budget. This budget is opposed by dozens of local groups who came together to offer the “Community Investment Budget” instead. Let's pack the room and demand for a just budget! Night Out for Safety and Liberation August 1, 2023 6:00 pm - 9:00pm Location: Austin City Hall 301 W 2nd St, Austin, TX 78701 RSVP today! https://lnkd.in/gNMsMUfG Testify Against Austin City Budget August 1, 2023 Testimony begins at 3 PM Location: Austin City Hall 301 W 2nd St, Austin, TX 78701 Note: Registration closes Monday 7/31 @ 12 PM!

The Fire Dudes Llc W: www.thefiredudes.net The strength and unwavering willpower of our nation's firefighters are unparalleled, as they courageously face daily challenges to ensure our safety in the face of unpredictable fire disasters. These dedicated individuals risk their lives selflessly, embodying resilience and valor in every emergency response. They stand united in their mission, transcending barriers of color, race, and creed to protect communities nationwide. Every day, firefighters bravely confront perilous situations to safeguard lives and property, often making split-second decisions under intense pressure. Their commitment extends beyond duty, exemplifying compassion and heroism in the face of danger. Tragically, many firefighters have sacrificed their lives in the line of duty, leaving behind legacies of courage and service. As a community, it's paramount to honor and support our firefighters, recognizing their indispensable contributions to public safety. By standing together and supporting organizations like the National Fallen Firefighters Foundation (NFFF), we can provide assistance to families of fallen firefighters and ensure that their sacrifice is never forgotten. Let's rally behind our brave firefighters and contribute to the NFFF to uphold their legacy of courage and uphold their legacy of courage and selflessness.
