This event is hosted by a planning committee of lived experts in Baltimore, MD.

Cradle to Cage, Seeds of Hope is an intimate abolitionist convening for participants to explore the deep and deliberate connections between mass incarceration and the family policing system. Centering survivors, caregivers, organizers, and healers, this gathering is a sacred space for transformation, truth-telling, and visionary strategy. Together, we’ll plant seeds of hope and build a future where our children are safe, our families are whole, and our communities are free from cages—both literal and systemic.
