Good Shepherd: Just Reflecting
Calling for an end to mandatory detention of women and children

World Day of Social Justice: Feb 20th

There are currently 1065 children in detention.
On this day- we think about each and every child in detention, as a small person needing love and justice. ‘they’ are not a group or collection or problem. Children are children wherever they are. We need to remember that, and treat them with the love and care we show our own children.
(Jacinta- mother of Brigid and Roy)
