I had an enlightening discussion with Carin Clary about data rich projects in response to #homelessness. She outlines key stakeholders, solutions, and cities that are making meaningful progress to this complicated cross sector problem, like the City and County of Denver and the City of Detroit.

🎧 Tune in to the powerful new podcast series #TransformingTransitionalJustice from our partners at the Global Initiative for Justice, Truth and Reconciliation (GIJTR). The podcast addresses common issues facing post-conflict communities and highlights survivor-centered approaches to healing, justice, and reconciliation. 👉 https://lnkd.in/eFYxDR73 The episodes so far focus on: 1️⃣ The need for new approaches to #transitionaljustice that address the needs of survivors. 2️⃣ The realities of conflict-related sexual violence and the importance of locally-led, compassionate care. 3️⃣ The sidelining of families in national searches for the disappeared in post-conflict settings and the critical role of forensic technologies in providing healing, accountability and justice by providing closure and relief to these families. We're looking forward to the three remaining episodes! #GIJTR is a flagship program of the International Coalition of Sites of Conscience.

We are thrilled to share the third installment of our enlightening video series presented by Safe New Futures. In this powerful video, Nina Kelly, CEO of Safe New Futures and a former worker in an international human rights organisation, shares her impactful experiences and the profound connections she fostered with falsely accused male prisoners in Mexico. In her narrative, Nina recounts her time advocating for these individuals, delivering a message of hope and solidarity: "You are not alone, we won’t forget you." This phrase not only offered a lifeline to those ensnared within an unforgiving justice system but also echoed a personal resonance with Nina, who faced her own struggles with loneliness following a family tragedy in her youth. This episode not only highlights the significance of human connection and support in overcoming the barriers of isolation but also invites viewers to consider the parallels between societal and personal loneliness. Through her story, Nina emphasises the importance of solidarity and community in providing a sense of belonging and support to those who feel forgotten by the world. Join us in watching this compelling video, share it with your networks, and engage in the conversation about the critical role of community and empathy in addressing loneliness. #Solidarity #CommunitySupport #VideoSeries #SafeNewFutures #Loneliness #WhitePaper

In times of uncertainty, it’s important to remain diligent to the pursuit of #innovativesolutions and #partnerships that empower and protect those most vulnerable to violence, especially in the communities where we live. We recently sat down with Carmen Pitre and Cherie Swenson of Sojourner to discuss that… and why right now is not the time to give up, but to #leanin. And keep going. #HumanSecurityforAll #NexionSolutions

Very interesting snippet on some research as to why adults may not report child abuse. Children need adults that feel confident in “what to know, and what to do about it” Prevention Starts with Parents has free resources, a workbook, and trainings to sign up for to help with this! https://lnkd.in/gwzBnPVg
