Grace Bauer, Co-Director of Justice for Families, is a mother of three from Sulphur, Louisiana whose passionate advocacy for juvenile justice reform arose when her 14-year old son was abused in a notorious juvenile correctional facility. Grace helped organize the Lake Charles chapter of Families and Friends of Louisiana’s Incarcerated Children (FFLIC). FFLIC quickly became known as the nation’s leading parent organization campaigning for greater fairness, reduced incarceration, and better conditions of confinement in juvenile justice. Grace also led the development of the National Parent Caucus and became Co-Director of Justice for Families in 2011, working with families around the country. justice4families.org
