Advocacy Day
Grassroots Leadership is hosting Advocacy Day 2025: "Slavery Never Ended; It Just Evolved" to highlight how prisons, jails, and detention centers perpetuate oppression and injustice. Together, we’re mobilizing at the Capitol to demand legislation uplifts our community instead of criminalization.
Resilience + Time Saved Celebration
The U.S. criminal legal systems aim to erase our stories and hopes, but every step toward reuniting families and rebuilding communities is a victory. At Grassroots Leadership, we’re celebrating these moments as signs of progress and resilience against punitive systems.
