We are a loving and mighty community of parents, students, educators, and citizens.

Arrow pointing right

Our story began with a crisis. We weathered a pandemic together, woke up, and realized democracy means it’s up to us to speak up.

Out of that crisis we gathered beauty, justice, and community.

Our children are our future and if they know their birthright as free people, our country will continue as a beacon of hope to the world. If our children are forced into a mold, cogs in a machine, masked and indoctrinated then the light in America will cease to be.

These United States are far from perfect, but they are the closest to a free and compassionate society this world has created. America was built with checks and balances that are entrusted to each of us.

Our founder Sharon McKeeman was part of the group and legal action that safely reopened California schools. She founded Let Them Breathe to advocate for mask-choice and C19 vax choice which have been proven to be the most reasonable option for students and safe for the community.

Let Them Breathe partners with many peaceful parent advocacy groups across the country, and we have distinguished ourselves with the amount of successful legal action and litigation we have undertaken, even setting state precedent. Our mission continues as we use advocacy, legal resources and alternative education to ensure that students have access to excellent, ethical education.

Every student deserves an excellent, publicly funded education. We advocate and even take legal action to protect that right. Where the public school system is failing families, they need alternative education solutions so they aren’t trapped by their zip code, and we assist in providing those resources.

We value volunteerism and have also worked hard to raise funds to provide our families with top tier legal, public relations, and educational programs. Thank you donors!
