Copy of Caring For a Change: Why Talking About Abuse is Not Enough

What do you care about and is it enough to change the world? - Kevin McNeil

Caring for a Change is not another book about trauma. It's a brave, unflinching call to action for those ready to do more than talk about injustice. Written by former police detective turned advocate Kevin McNeil, this book exposes the systems that claim to care but profit from pain and dares readers to become part of a revolution that prioritizes people over protocol, and healing over hierarchy.

With raw honesty and deep conviction, McNeil shares his journey from a childhood marked by violence, through decades in law enforcement, to a life of community-centered advocacy. Along the way, he challenges everything we think we know about justice, healing, and institutional care and reveals how our misplaced priorities leave children vulnerable and survivors unheard.

This book is for:

• Survivors who are tired of waiting for systems to save them

• Advocates and professionals seeking deeper, trauma-informed impact

• Faith leaders, teachers, and caregivers ready to transform how they serve

• Anyone who wants to move from awareness to action

Inspired by the lives of revolutionary figures like Harriet Tubman and Jesus of Nazareth, McNeil argues that real healing demands we step outside broken systems and create new spaces rooted in authentic care.

If you've ever asked, "Why hasn't anything changed?"-this book is your answer and your roadmap.

Healing doesn't start with systems. It starts with us. ​Welcome to the revolution of care!
