Often times parents just cross their fingers and hope. Hope that their child isn’t abused or exploited or trafficked. The field has done a good job raising awareness about these issues, but to be honest, unless we also give parents TOOLS and CONFIDENCE, all we’ve done is increase caregivers’ anxiety.

At Support Over Silence, we dig deep into the science - the science of prevention, the science of communication, the science of community building and the science of risk factors. By leaning hard into the evidence, and building solutions with community experts, we’re bringing you a new playbook for parenting.

What happens when ordinary people are given the right tools? THIS 🤩

Before the training, 41% of our participants said they’d avoid a struggling caregiver. Three months later? That number was zero.

This is what community protection looks like. All sorts of people…. neighbors, librarians, business leaders, school staff, faith leaders…choosing to respond with support, not silence.

We love this work and we love our neighbors! Please visit our website to see more :) link in bio 💙

Lately I've been waking up early in an attempt to rise and set with the sun. So far so good and I'm sleeping much better! There's a great benefit of knowing how to read the science and apply it to life. I think 2025 is the year of LIGHT and circadian biology! So much to learn :)

Arrived just in time for my summer reading list! Joe tells such a wonderful story and has great wisdom and insight to share. Recommend for educators…maybe an upcoming book club Guy Stephens?

I'm doing some things and it's fun. And I've decided to always wear comfortable shoes - thank you to the 20 something women for leading that fashion trend.
