Empowering Our Community to Demand Accountability and Protect the Vulnerable

In Williams County, Ohio, systemic failures have left many of the most vulnerable members of our community without the protection they deserve. When the systems designed to safeguard children, families, and individuals fall short, it is up to us as a community to stand together and demand change.
