Speak Our Truth Project: Child Safety & Human Rights Rally-Español también

Join Rio’s Rainbow, Parent Coalition for Child Safety & Wellness, Cosecha, and Non-Violent Medicaid Army (Put People 1st Indiana) for our first collaborative Speak Our Truth Rally. We have a dynamic lineup of speakers and arts and culture performers across Indiana, to learn more about local grassroots organizations advocating across multiple platforms for child safety and human rights.

Social problems require a united social movement of people from every background, beyond race, social or political status, and religion. This is a family friendly gathering of community, truth-telling, and solidarity.

In addition, we will have a Speak Your Truth Booth for individuals called to share their own stories, Free Family Fun Basket Raffle Giveaways, music by DJ Certified Grind, Dancing, Community Provider Resources, Food Vendors, and Free Face Painting! Translation provided for Spanish families.

All are welcome!
