please join us for a public meet-and-greet with the new Walnut Creek Chief of Police. It is important that the Walnut Creek Police Department understands that Miles Hall is not forgotten — and that our community continues to hold Walnut Creek PD accountable for his death, even as we move forward in our work to prevent other families from experiencing the same loss due to police violence and bias.

If you missed our recent Volunteer Connection Call, here’s the heart of it in one place: what we’ve been up to, where we’re headed, and how you (yes, you) can be part of the next chapter.

When we tell fuller stories of families and people living with mental illness— stories that include healing, love, creativity, and purpose — we do more than reduce stigma. We affirm something deeper: that people living with SMIs are not defined their illness, but by who they are and what they continue to give to the world.
