Building a world our families deserve.
Movement for Family Power is an abolitionist hub and incubator, cultivating and harnessing community power to end family policing and build a world where all families can thrive.
Our Work
-
Transforming Narratives
Raising social awareness of how family policing threatens the autonomy, health, and safety of families.

-
Shifting Power
Mobilizing community defense and other tactics that protect our families and movement ecosystem.
Why It Matters
By portraying Black and marginalized people as “unfit” to parent, the family policing (“child welfare”) system legitimizes the systematic separation of families and mass surveillance of pregnant and parenting people.
