ACTION ALERT: Demand Accountability for the Hate Crimes at Corpus Christi State School

Call the Governor's office and your state Representative and Senator and request the following:

  • Formally request the Federal authorities to investigate the alleged perpatrators of these horrific acts at the Corpus Christi State institution as Hate Crimes. It is critical that these individuals be held accountable to send a strong message that this type of behavior against our most vulnerable citizens is unacceptable.

  • Immediately call for the closure of Corpus Christi State institution and safely transition the individuals to another setting of their choice based on availability. This facility cannot be fixed.

  • Ensure are levels of management are held accountable for these horrific allegations of abuse and exploitation.
