Crime survivor Priscilla Bordayo with @CSSJustice testified today in support of Michigan’s HB 4211, which would help people returning home from prison get reentry services needed to positively reengage into society. This bill is important to #publicsafety and to survivors in MI.

We asked voters which public safety functions are most important to protect from budget cuts. The majority said mental health+addiction treatment, violence prevention, school-based programs & emergency shelters. #ReversetheCuts and #ProtectPublicSafety at https://t.co/tdvJ2Mi9AO

People of every walk of life want & deserve safety no matter who they are or where they live. Cutting federal grants that protect victims of crime and reduce violence through strong community and law enforcement partnerships, threaten safety. #ReverseTheCuts #ProtectPublicSafety
