In this powerful episode of the Visible Kindness Podcast, Ed Squire speaks with Nicole Moehring, founder of Voices of Change 2018, a nonprofit dedicated to preventing abuse and advocating for individuals with disabilities.

Nicole shares the deeply personal story of how both of her children became victims of abuse — and the stark contrast in how the justice system responded. While her daughter’s case resulted in accountability and legal consequences, her autistic son’s case was dismissed, revealing critical gaps in how systems handle cases involving individuals with disabilities.

This conversation explores:

• The challenges of navigating the justice system as a parent
• The heightened vulnerability of individuals with disabilities
• The importance of education, advocacy, and systemic change
• How Nicole turned personal tragedy into a mission to help others

Nicole now works with legislators and organizations to improve policies, awareness, and protections for vulnerable populations.

This is a deeply moving and important conversation about justice, advocacy, and the power of using your voice.
