Do you know how "disproportionality" affects our community? Black children and youth in Travis County make up 12% of the population yet make up a much larger percentage of the Child Protective Services (CPS) system. And they become more overrepresented at every step through the
system.
Learn more and then talk about what we can do to lower the numbers and keep
children safe at home by attending the disproportionality town hall meeting at
Memorial United Methodist Church located at 6100 Berkman Drive, Austin, Texas
78723. Sponsored by the Austin Disproportionality Advisory Committee.
