Meg's Notes
Welcome to The Stand With Meg Record
·Meg Miller
The blog now lives on standwithmeg.com/blog — the same place as the Family Rights Registry, the public dashboard, the court actor registry, and the state family court reports.
The goal is to keep the writing close to the public record it explains. A note on a Kansas committee hearing should sit next to the Kansas state report. A piece on guardian ad litem accountability should sit next to the court actor registry. A reflection on what families say when they find the dashboard should sit next to the dashboard itself.
"I thought I was the only one until I saw other families reporting the same patterns."
— Family-submitted report (representative; not a real name; not a verified legal finding)
What lives here
- Meg's Notes — written by Meg, in her voice, from inside the work.
- Family Voices — family-submitted patterns, testimony, and stories that families have explicitly authorized for public publication.
- State Reports — updates on which states have crossed the publication threshold, and what the public record is starting to show.
- Court Actor Registry — context on how names enter the registry, what the threshold is, and why repeated independent reports matter.
- CPS Accountability — child welfare accountability work, ex parte removals, due process concerns, and government separation cases.
- Family Court Reform — explainers, legislative updates, and the systemic patterns the registry is documenting.

How you can help
The single biggest thing that keeps this record online is recurring support. The registry, the dashboard, the court actor registry, and the state reports all run on infrastructure that costs the same whether one family is reading or ten thousand are. Monthly donations of any size keep the public record public.
If you have your own story to add, the Family Rights Survey is open. Every submission makes the pattern harder to dismiss.
Help keep this record public.
Donations are what keep the Family Rights Registry, the public dashboard, and the state reports searchable, current, and free for the next family looking for proof they are not alone.
