Dignity
Every resident deserves to be treated as a whole person worthy of respect, compassion and humane care.
ABOUT JUSTICE & CHANGE
Every Resident Has a Story. Every Family Deserves to Be Heard.
Justice & Change for Victims of Nursing Facilities was created to raise awareness, support families and advocate for the dignity of people living in nursing facilities.
Since 2020, our work has centered on people—residents who deserve dignity, families searching for answers, and communities willing to stand with them.
OUR PURPOSE
Protecting residents. Empowering families.
Changing the system.

OUR STORY
This Work Started With a Reason to Speak Up.
Justice & Change was founded by Tracey Pompey with a commitment to making sure concerns surrounding nursing-facility residents are not simply overlooked.
Since 2020, Justice & Change has worked to raise awareness concerning abuse and neglect of nursing-facility residents and to help families connect with information and support.
The organization has grown into a community-centered mission that brings together advocacy, family support, education, volunteerism and direct acts of care for nursing-facility residents.
At the center of the work is the belief that needing long-term care should never mean losing your dignity, your humanity or your voice.
OUR MISSION
Raising Awareness. Supporting Families. Standing With Residents.
“
Justice & Change for Victims of Nursing Facilities works to raise awareness concerning abuse and neglect of nursing-facility residents and to build family support through connections, information, advocacy and community engagement.
WHAT GUIDES US
The Values Behind the Work.
Our work begins with seeing nursing-facility residents as people first and recognizing the important role families and communities play in protecting dignity.
Voice
Residents and families deserve to be heard when they ask questions, share experiences or raise concerns about care.
Information
Families are better prepared to advocate when they have access to understandable information and know where to look for appropriate resources.
Community
Nursing-facility residents remain members of our communities and deserve to feel seen, valued and remembered.
Accountability
Concerns about resident care deserve attention, appropriate questions and responsible follow-through.
Compassion
Advocacy is not only about speaking up. It is also about showing up with care for residents and the families who love them.
SINCE 2020
From Speaking Up to Building a Community.
Justice & Change has continued to grow beyond awareness alone.
The mission now brings together families, residents, volunteers, supporters and community partners through advocacy, education, resident-centered programs and opportunities for people to become involved.
As the organization continues to grow, the goal remains centered on the same people who inspired the work: nursing-facility residents and the families who care about what happens to them.
WHO WE STAND WITH
This Mission Is About People.
01
Residents
People living in nursing facilities who deserve dignity, respect, compassion and a voice.
02
Families
Loved ones trying to understand what is happening, ask appropriate questions and advocate for someone they care about.
03
Communities
Volunteers, donors, businesses, churches and organizations willing to help make sure residents are not forgotten.
WHY WE KEEP SHOWING UP
We Are Their Voice.
Behind every conversation about nursing-facility care is a person.
A mother. A father. A grandparent. A spouse. A sibling. A neighbor. A friend.
Justice & Change works to help keep their humanity, dignity and experiences at the center of the conversation.
They are not forgotten.
