[CW: domestic violence] Being system-impacted can also fuel cycles of abuse, as shown in this dramatization. That's why we advocate for the next District Attorney to reallocate funding from their budget to create a first responder model for DV calls. @BackToEdenNP

It's the first day of early voting! Belay & Zed with member organization MARLA (Migrants and Refugees Leadership Academy) are hoping to turn out the youth vote with this video. Share this with 3 young voters to make their message go viral! #GrowTheCircle

Our criminal justice system too often turns minor violations into life-altering consequences. Who we elect as District Attorney and Sheriff makes all the difference. Follow Calvin along this dramatization of real stories that happen every day. #PublicSafetyProject #SafetyTogether

In @chron Can Houston churches afford electricity bills after #HurricaneBeryl? First Missionary Baptist pays $850 for its monthly electric bill. Weeklong surge of electricity needed to shelter people in hurricane will increase cost to $8K for July. chron.com/culture/religion/a…

Small Houston church expects to pay ten times its power bill in July

First Missionary Baptist Church may pay thousands of dollars after serving as cooling center.
