✨This new approach will save lives and build systems of care that are rooted in improving the well-being of all communities. Support creating safer communities today. Sign the petition to support the passage of the PRA at https://t.co/hMynoOXU3V!
🗣️There is clear support among Black Americans for investing in evidence-informed community safety solutions that would center de-escalation, mental-health support, and approaches that do not rely on punishment or force. We need your support today to make this a reality!
⚖️The People's Response Act (PRA) looks to expand solutions to harm and safety that our communities have long been championing. The PRA emphasizes and adopts an inclusive, and health-centered approach to public safety.
