Our campaigns are youth-led organizing efforts to win concrete changes, from shutting down abusive facilities to advancing transformative justice and investing in care over cages. Together, we organize for freedom, self-determination, and a future where our communities have the power to decide what safety and justice look like.
Join us in our demand to urgently release the girls and gender-expansive youth still locked up in LA County’s failing juvenile system. Many of these young people are survivors of abuse and incarceration only deepens their trauma.
Los Padrinos Juvenile Hall is unsafe and unfit to house any young person. From overdoses to abuse, the facility continues to cause irreparable harm while draining public resources. It’s time to shut it down and invest in real alternatives that support healing, not punishment.
