The Advocacy and Rights Collective (ARC) is a 6 week virtual program that exists to create a peer-based space for young adults with lived experience of parental substance use alongside incarceration or children family service involvement to understand their rights, make sense of stigma and systems, and build the confidence to engage in advocacy in ways that feel meaningful and sustainable.
Now that I know my rights, I can help my parents learn theirs. I hope this zine similarily inspires you to learn your rights and share them with others. Your family deserves to be support and treated with respect.
Starlings Participant, Peer with lived experience
