Truth-telling isn’t rebellious. It’s necessary.
The Puppetized Framework™
Resisting performance. Reclaiming power. Rebuilding systems.
This trauma-informed, copyright-protected model was built to address what too many institutions avoid: the replicable mechanics of harm in nonprofit, public health, and academic spaces. It doesn’t ask for permission. It offers a way forward—through data, design, and legally grounded structure.
Currently under review for implementation by Duke University CFAR, this framework integrates:
- Structural analysis
- ADA compliance and whistleblower protections
- Leadership by lived experience
- Licensing for ethical use and expansion
This isn’t theory. It’s strategy.
