Criminal Justice and Community Safety, Pt 2: Healed People Heal People

LisaMarie Betancourt interviews two Central Valley healing justice advocates, community organizer Grisanti Valencia & Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist Gidai Maaza. 

  • What roles are communities currently occupying in public safety? 
  • What are the small entry points we all can make for collective healing? 

In this episode, we talk about healing justice for communities most impacted by policing and least served by current community care models. Healed people heal people.
