#BHM Spotlight: 🩺Dr. Rebecca Lee Crumpler made history as the first Black woman in the U.S. to earn a medical degree in 1864. At a time when Black Americans were denied proper care, she dedicated her life to healing communities. A true pioneer in medicine! 💜 #BlackHistoryMonth #NOLAsky #NOLAbluesky

Everyone deserves to live their truth without fear 🚫✨ Being who you are isn't a crime – it's a right! Let’s show up for trans rights and create a world where authenticity is celebrated, not criminalized. #TransRightsAreHumanRights #LiveYourTruth #CelebrateDiversity

As the month comes to a close, let’s take a moment to reflect on how far we’ve come and all the potential still to be unlocked. At Operation Restoration, we’re just getting started. 💜
#NOLAbluesky #NOLAblue

Today’s reminder: Every step forward counts, no matter how small. The women we work with prove that progress is possible, and we’re here to support them on their journey. 💜

It's that time again! Mardi Gras is all about celebrating resilience and community, just like the strong women we support at Operation Restoration, who are reclaiming their power every day. Let the good times roll—and the good work too! 🎭💜💚💛

Over 70 years of housing policies locked Black communities into poverty and criminalized their survival. The fight for justice starts with dismantling these structures.
#NOLABluesky

A criminal record follows people for life, shutting doors to jobs, housing and education. It’s a punishment that never ends. It's time for change.
#BanTheBox #PrisonReform

Decades of discriminatory housing laws displaced Black families and underfunded their neighborhoods. The result? Poverty, limited resources and an endless cycle feeding the prison system.

Women coming home from prison need support, not stigma. Let’s offer them the tools to thrive. Join Operation Restoration in making that a reality for all.
#OperationRestoration #NOLAbluesky

Over 66% of women in prison report a history of mental health struggles. Our justice system should heal, not harm.

Can the nation's New Year's resolution be taking profit out of prisons?
#NOLAbluesky

Slavery is still technically legal in the United States according to the U.S. Constitution. Don’t believe us? Google the 13th amendment.
#NOLAbluesky

We are Operation Restoration. We believe in rehabilitation, second chances, and equal opportunity for all.
