Welcome back to the people who are ready to see change. On this episode of Operation Stop CPS's Podcast Series: Voices of the Unheard, Amanda will interview two mothers currently fighting to regain custody of their children from Durham County Department of Social Services (North Carolina). Alexis Wynn is the mother of Prince and Zion. Prince and Zion were wrongfully removed in 2019 after Alexis became a victim of domestic violence. Instead of providing Alexis with services, her children were taken into custody. Kellie Smith is the mother of Phillip and Ah'miyah. Ah'miyah was wrongfully removed in 2019 and then Phillip was taken in 2021. There was no evidence to prove that Kellie had abused or neglected her children but Kellie was preyed upon because she was a teen mother. Both of these mothers have completed all court ordered services yet their children have not been returned to their care. Listen in as we break down their cases and call the community to action.
