The Care Gap (by Mother Honestly)’s Post

Women that have come before me, stood alongside me, taught me, lead me, and loved me have long been the inspiration for the woman I aspire to be in life, and also some of the greatest motivators in founding (Sister)Hood of Hope, Inc.. Listen to my feature on the podcast to learn more about our organization and the young person whose life taught me that there might not always be someone who understands, but someone who wants to understand can make all the difference: https://lnkd.in/gDe6W3mZ

June is National Make a Difference to Children Month. In honor, we remind adults that you probably already do things every day to support children. Whether it’s simply showing up or listening to what they have to say – you have a huge impact. Here are a few tips to help do more to make a difference:

Check out our latest Core Conversation with Cindy and Tatum from L'Arche North Carolina! 👏 "It means a lot for me to get to show what I can do and what I’m made of in this community, showing how people can be aware of what a blind person can do. I could do anything!" https://lnkd.in/gQuFxTYw

"We know when we're able to build up the social economic and emotional needs of our men, we can then impact families and entire communities." Check out this quick video recap of our 2024 Fatherhood Conference: https://lnkd.in/e6u9JrxX

🛑 We Gotta Stop Giving Lil Homies Bad Game! 🛑 Too many of our young kings and queens out here are getting led down a road that ends in pain, prison, or worse. Why? Because the OGs, the big homies, the ones they look up to, are feeding them the WRONG game. We gotta do better. Period. Every time I step into a juvenile center, I see the same thing—a room full of young men carrying hurt, anger, and pain so deep it’s written all over their faces. And the worst part? They feel like nobody cares. But let me tell you this: THEY NEED US. These lil homies don’t need fake love, bad advice, or empty promises. They need REAL ONES who’ve been through the fire and can guide them out. They need men and women who will feed them game that’ll elevate, not destroy. So today, I’m sending a MAJOR salute to two warriors in the trenches: Mr. Danquarius Sneed and Mr. Patrick Louther at the Dallas County Henry Wade Juvenile Center. These men aren’t just showing up—they’re SHOWING OUT for these kids, pouring into them with love, knowledge, and the real blueprint for success. Their energy is unmatched, their dedication is obvious, and the way they connect with the youth is something we all need to emulate. Y’all are the definition of real ones. The Big Reform Movement sees you, salutes you, and thanks you for doing the work that really matters. To everybody reading this: Stop giving bad game. Stop being silent. Start showing these kids what greatness looks like. The next generation is watching, and it’s on us to make sure they grow into leaders, not statistics. #BigReformMovement #CultureShifter #GoodGameOnly #StopTheCycle #RealGameRealImpact #YouthFirst #ChangingTheNarrative

Legacy is something we build over a lifetime, but often forget to record. Our stories are the foundation of who we are. As parents and grandparents (and even when we don't have children), we have the power to leave behind not just material wealth, but the stories and wisdom that shape future generations.
