Parents Need Support, Not Policing, with Joyce McMillan
EPPiC Broadcast
01/19/21 • 36 min
Child welfare and family services claim to act in the best interest of children, but far too often government agencies punish innocent parents and rip apart low-income and minority families.
What would a child welfare system look like that supports parents and keeps families together?
This week, Michael talks with Joyce McMillan, Founder of JMAC for Families and the PLAN Coalition. Joyce is a deeply respected NYC activist for families, and she has been there herself. Joyce tells us about her work defending families in New York, how the system is failing parents and children, and what a better model of child welfare might look like.
See more of Joyce’s work at her new website, jmacforfamilies.com.
