Our vision is a world transformed by the vessel we build—one that brings healing where harm ruled, and truth where silence once lived.
Children’s Court is that vessel—and the system won’t survive what we’re carrying.
That’s why we created The Five Realms: a new framework to replace the adversarial family court with something just, human, and powerful.
Justice rides in on PRAUW—Protection, Restoration, Accountability, Unity, and Wisdom.
Not led by judges or lawyers, but by those who live the truth—and carry the cure.
Purpose: Safety, truth, and prevention

When abuse or danger is present, this Realm steps in to assess risk and take action. Led by trauma-informed teams, it prioritizes child safety above all else.
