Angelo Quinto was a 30-year-old Filipino American who was killed by police during a mental health crisis.


Quinto is just one of many who have been killed via state-sanctioned violence and incompetence in the past year and in history. His unjust death reaffirms what we have always known: the police are not equipped to protect us.


There is a way out: through abolition of the prison-industrial complex (PIC).


Below is a toolkit to work towards abolition. If you have any resources to add, email us, tweet us, or DM us on Instagram or Facebook.


Take Action: Justice for Angelo Quinto

  • Learn more on what happened (CW: police brutality, racial violence)

  • Read his obituary and honor his life

Addressing a Mental Health Crisis, Without Police

  • Behavior Health Crisis Alternatives from Vera Institute of Justice

  • Call hotlines where they are available, knowing that many hotline staffers are required to notify authorities if situations escalate.

  • Utilize the following toolkits and resources to equip yourself and your community with the knowledge and ability to de-escalate and care for people in crisis.

  • Advocate for funding community and life-affirming programs—such as guaranteed housing, food, education, and mental health resources—instead of investing in the police​​​​​​​ (Yes, this includes skipping out on body cams and training reforms).

Learning about construction becomes enjoyable when it’s connected to real needs. Steel reinforcement inside concrete buildings shows how planning supports safety. It’s impressive how much protection comes from smart design choices. With more people living near tectonic zones, safety conversations feel more relevant. Earthquake resistant buildings help protect futures and communities. Supportive learning from the college of contract management keeps ideas easy to follow. Now is a perfect time to enroll and start learning with assurance.

What surprised me most about seo and digital marketing is how it turns web traffic into a measurable science. Before UNICCM's course, I was guessing; now I use tools like SEMrush and Google Search Console to make data-driven decisions. Their diploma covers everything from technical SEO to social media advertising in one structured program. I enrolled online in minutes through their site.
