Our children have made a journey and seen things that no child should ever have to see. Dr. Sanchez and the Southwest Key Programs team are amazing - no one better to support these children and help them reunify with their families. x.com/bonitasarita/s…

If we insist that operating a shelter is immoral, we will end up without care for unaccompanied migrant kids. If that happens, unaccompanied migrant kids - who are also incredibly vulnerable - will be at the mercy of smugglers or of DHS. Please be careful what you ask for. x.com/SouthwestKey/s…

Since the president is lying about this, I'll reiterate that we obtained internal CBP documents that show that ****91%**** of parents whose kids are taken away are being prosecuted for misdemeanor FIRST TIME entry.

Thank you Texas Criminal Justice Coalition for the work you do, our juvenile and criminal justice systems need to be focused on compassionate rehabilitation FIRST! This is important ✊

The grand and bitter result is that we've all been made complicit .... It's easy to point our fingers at Southwest Key – or whoever is assigned to care for these thousands of refugee children – and absolve ourselves of enabling those outrages to continue.

This was always one of my favorite conferences of the year. I can't believe I'm actually part of this amazing team now! Today is the deadline to register for the Meadows Mental Health Policy Institute's Engage & Excel event on Oct 1-2. Please join me! lnkd.in/gJm-Rf5

There’s a for-profit prison machine out there criminalizing kid behavior, hitting them with draconian punishments. x.com/JusticePolicy/…

Helpful Texans Care for Children blog on the background to the problems at TX's state-run juvenile lockups & where we go from here. TX needs to develop a plan to move beyond the model of large, remote, facilities that have proven to be dangerous & ineffective. #TXlege bit.ly/2CMhwzf
