We've only just begun. It's time to right the wrongs of history.
No individual or family should face judicial injustice alone. We stand in the gap, advocate with courage, restore hope, and walk beside them on their journey.
Lawfare and government overreach do not stop at one courthouse or one kind of family. Operation Restore™ runs four initiatives, each built for a different group of people the system has run over.
For people prosecuted for who they are rather than what they did. We fight judicial overreach and wrongful conviction, and we stand beside those facing persecution — sealing records, recovering fines and restitution, and pursuing claims against the government that took them.
Explore the initiative →For parents who lost their children to a system that never should have taken them. Family court, CPS overreach, human trafficking, and minor medical kidnapping — reuniting families, protecting children, restoring hope.
Join the list to be notifiedFor service members convicted by a system they swore to defend. Military judicial injustice and the falsely accused — restoring freedom, dignity, and the careers, families, and futures taken with them.
Join the list to be notifiedFor seniors and vulnerable adults stripped of their rights by the courts meant to protect them. State guardianship overreach, estate protection, and elderly medical kidnapping.
Join the list to be notifiedNobody arrives at the same point. We meet families where the case has them and stay through the part that comes after.
Immediate crisis needs as a case begins. Emergency support when the ground gives out and nobody knows what happens next.
Needs assessment during a case, or in the weeks and months right after it. Housing, transportation, counseling, and legal support.
Long-term healing after the case is closed. Records, reputation, employment, and the parts of a life a verdict does not give back.
We raise awareness, restore lives, and advance meaningful justice reform — and we unite the people and organizations already in this fight so that all of us hit harder together.OUR MISSION · STAND IN THE GAP FOUNDATION®
