6 years ago today, Cornelius Fredrick was was restrained by 6 staff members of Lakeside Academy after throwing a sandwich in the cafeteria. They laid on top of him for 10 minutes while Cornelius screamed “I can’t breathe” until he lost consciousness.

More than 80% of kids who are connected to a diversion program successfully complete it with no further escalation.
No child belong behind bars! Come to our town hall TOMORROW at 6pm to learn how community-led diversion can transform outcomes for youth. Bring a friend!

We fight to get children out of youth prisons and foster group homes because they are rife with sexual abuse. This Sexual Assault Awareness Month, Director of Comms Katy Otto writes about urgency in this crisis and why all children deserve better. #SAAM https://t.co/hd7kWo3glb

[Care, Not Control @CareNotControl]

Come to our town hall next Thurs to ask your questions, hear from @repkrajewski and experts about how HB 144 will impact our communities, and take action to advocate for the changes you want to see for youth!

[Care, Not Control @CareNotControl]

Earlier this year, the PA House voted to pass HB 144 to standardize diversion and connect kids to community programs instead of carceral responses.

[Juvenile Law Center @JuvLaw1975]

Strip searches. Shackles. Solitary confinement. Physical and sexual abuse. These are the horrors children face in youth prisons. They are robbed of critical years of their development, facing separation from their families and communities.
