An Unavoidable System: The Harms of Family Policing and Parents' Vision for Investing in Community Care

Natalie Audage 9/30/215:43 PM

This new report shares the results of a participatory action research (PAR) project that Rise conducted in winter 2021 in partnership with TakeRoot Justice. Our research documents parents’ experiences with the family policing system and explores a collective vision to transform our society’s structures, policies and practices related to family and community support.

Imaginative and sometimes painful community conversations with 48 people impacted by ACS provide the foundation of this report. Findings also reflect 58 anonymous surveys by parents impacted by ACS.

We extend deep gratitude to everyone who participated in community conversations and completed surveys. We honor you and we thank you.
