CLOSE THE HOMESTEAD CHILD DETENTION CENTER 
The Homestead Child Detention Center in Florida is the country’s only for-profit child detention center. Putting children into prison camps is monstrous. This follows a pattern of further criminalizing Black and Brown bodies across the United States and our silence means complicity. We must resist. Join us to #ShutDownHomestead, a campaign started by community groups in the Homestead area and supported by the UUA, UUSC: Unitarian Universalist Service Committee, Love Resists, Side with Love and other faith partners.  SIGN THE PETITION
