We facilitated three, nine-week Healing to Advocacy Program cohorts, graduating 31 new women with incarcerated loved ones from this program into our Essie Sisterhooda support network of 500 (and growing) system-impacted women with access to a monthly membership support group, free therapy, resource sharing, community building events, and ongoing opportunities for leadership development. To support women being able to attend our programming, we provided transportation support, childcare, and over 40 hot and healthy meals to women and their children in 2024. We trained 42 members via our Campaign School on how to make change in their communities and worked in partnership with a local advocacy coalition to support the creation and implementation of Care First pretrial services in Los Angeles County. 4213285 true true false true false false false false false false true false false true true false true false false false false false false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true 54 0 true 74 true false false false false false true true false 0 false false false false false false false X 10 9 false false false false false false false true true false false true true true true true true true true false CA X X THE ORGANIZATION 5107402508 318 Harrison St Ste 200 Oakland CA 94607 Gina Clayton-Johnson Executive Dir. 43.00 0.00 X X 208224 0 0 Lily Mandlin Deputy Dir. 43.00 0.00 182806 0 0 Kelly Phipps Dir.
