Mission Statement
The mission of KC MIC is to provide support and guidance to families of homicide victims, to provide a bridge
between the community and our local law enforcement and to reduce violent crime through prevention,
education and intervention.
Background Statement
Rosilyn Temple’s son was murdered in the Town Fork Creek Neighborhood of Kansas City November 23, 2011.
After a period of intense grieving, Ms. Temple learned of the national organization, Mothers in Charge, Inc.,
begun in 2003 in Philadelphia by Dorothy Johnson-Speight, a mother who lost her son to homicide and became
a highly regarded leader advocating to end violent crime. In 2013, Ms. Temple launched the Kansas City
chapter of Mothers in Charge, Inc. as a program of Kansas City’s Ad Hoc Group Against Crime. In July 2014,
KC MIC received funding from the Kansas City Missouri Police Department (KCPD) to move into its own office
space and expand the scope of its programs and services. This grant came as the result of Ms. Temple’s
dedication and the impact she and member mothers were having at homicide scenes comforting family
members, calming onlookers, and supporting police by explaining procedures. The group also canvassed
neighborhoods after crimes to distribute gun-safety locks and encourage residents to tell what they knew. In
November 2014, KC Mothers in Charge appointed its inaugural board of directors and became a Missouri nonprofit corporation. Six months later it was granted IRS 501(c)(3) status. Today, KC MIC works in close
partnership with, and receives funding from, the Kansas City No Violence Alliance (KC NoVA), which is
composed of key law enforcement agencies and related entities. In addition to law enforcement, KC MIC works
closely with numerous non-profit, civic and faith-based organizations.
In its first year of non-profit status, Ms. Temple was called by KCPD homicide detectives to nearly every
homicide scene. KC MIC attended all KC NoVA “call-ins” for at-risk young men where mothers spoke directly to
potential perpetrators and potential victims of homicide to remind them that to every murder is attached a
mother and others who care deeply—a message that would often bring potential perpetrators to tears. Kansas
City Police Chief Daryl Forte says, “I would do anything in the world for her [and Mothers in Charge].” Of Ms.
Temple, Mayor Sly James said, “You have good people coming together to try to stamp out violence; she’s one
of those good people.”

Impact Statement
2016 Accomplishments:
Executive Director Rosilyn Temple and her team of “Core Mothers”, all of whom have lost loved ones to gun
violence, (and with the support of dozens of volunteers) have fulfilled the following initiatives in 2016:
• Attended more than 100 homicide scenes to explain police procedures, comfort mothers and families, and
interrupt retaliation.
• Told their tragic stories of loss and the generational impact of homicide to more than 140 parolees and at-risk
individuals during four Kansas City No Violence Alliance (KC NoVA) “call-ins.”
• Counseled and comforted at least 200 mothers and families members of homicide victims at monthly healing
support groups.
• Held more than 25 community vigils for homicide victims.
• Reached more than 100,000 Kansas Citians and youth through speaking engagements and media interviews.
Additionally, Ms. Temple was named 2015 Citizen of the Year by The Kansas City Star.
2017 Goals:
An overarching goal for KC MIC in 2017 is Capacity Building, both in service provision and organizational
development. Rosilyn Temple, as well as being the heart and soul of Mothers in Charge, has also been the
primary service provider and volunteer manager. In order for KC MIC to advance and to meet the continuing
and increasing demands from a too-violent community, a number of things are needed:
• Hiring a full-time Administrative Coordinator to support Ms. Temple and organizational demands—volunteer
coordination and management, interfacing with the contract accountant and bookkeeper, and among other
duties, managing data, evaluation and grant reporting.
• Hiring an Outreach Coordinator to assist Ms. Temple with direct service requests, and with coordinating the
work of the “Core Mothers.”
• Providing support and training opportunities for staff, Core Mothers and others in healing and traumainformed response methods.
• With volunteer grant writers, responding to appropriate government grant opportunities, in order to assure
greater financial stability.
• Pursuing private funding opportunities from a mix of foundations, corporations and special events.
Needs Statement
KC MIC five most pressing needs, in order of importance are:
1.General operating funds to support administrative and program costs not covered by current grants, to
provide match for grants which require such funding, and to provide a base of funding to sustain the agency
during "time lags" awaiting government grant funding based on reimbursement of program dollars expended.
2.Expanding the part time Administrative Coordinator position to full time to provide administrative and
organizational support, including managing data and evaluation, grant reporting and oversight of volunteer
management.
3.Hiring an Outreach and Volunteer Coordinator to provide program support and assistance to the Executive
Director, assisting families of homicide victims, and managing volunteers.
4.Funding for staff benefits. Currently the Executive Director has only health insurance; benefits are needed for
her and other staff.
5.Development and training funds for staff and key volunteers in healing and trauma-informed response to
families, as well as training related to organizational development.

Board Chair Statement
MIC’s greatest source of pride is the awareness it has brought to metropolitan Kansas City of the damaging
generational effects of homicide on individuals, families, and the safety of the greater community and that MIC
and our partners can provide a way out. Our presence at homicide scenes vividly demonstrates to families and
local residents that someone cares, that they don’t have to be intimidated by criminals or by the police, and that
they can feel empowered to make real change in their neighborhoods with our steadfast support. We feel
tremendous pride that Mayor Sly James, Police Chief Daryl Forte, and Jackson County Prosecutor Jean Peters
Baker consider KC MIC an invaluable partner in helping prevent high-risk individuals from committing crimes
that will result in long federal prison sentences or even death. We are honored that KC NoVA depends on our
moving presentations at regular call-ins where potential perpetrators and victims hear not only that the police
know who they are, where they are, and what they are doing, but want them to be safe, alive, and out of prison.
Our active presenters—six mothers of murdered sons—tear open their deepest wounds and thereby open our
hearts to them. We remind them of the consequences of homicide on extended family and friends. We talk to
them as mothers would and tell them we don’t want them to end up like our children, or in prison for
perpetuating senseless violence. As one call-in attendee said, “MIC’s presentation always has the most impact.
The other presenters are there to share a message that is hard to hear: You are sitting here because you are at
high risk for violence in your life. A lot of them have had family members murdered or have been shot
themselves. Mothers in Charge brings a personal touch that opens up the hearts of potential perpetrators,
makes them vulnerable, and reminds them they are sitting there because they have value, they have potential,
and they deserve to live a life that doesn’t keep them in harm’s way 24/7.”
In MIC’s second of three years’ funding from KC NoVA, we are meeting our funding challenges by launching a
strategic initiative to pursue grant funding with the help of volunteer professional grant writers and planners to
provide stability for our general operating expenses and ensure the sustainability of expanded training of our
mothers, counseling for victims’ families, education of youth, and a future prison counseling program.

KC MIC serves primarily those who reside in Kansas City’s most violent neighborhoods and areas of deepest
poverty, as it is called by the KCPD to assist with all homicide responses. This includes the 320 square-mile
jurisdiction of the Kansas City Police Department including the East, Central, Metro, North, Shoal Creek, and
South Patrol Divisions. In addition, KC MIC responds to requests to assist with families of homicide from
throughout the bi-state metro area. Those families who have sought support from KC MIC include those from
all socio-economic groups and may have experienced loss recently or in the far distant past.

Homicide Scene Support
Description
KC MIC believes that no family members should have to be alone at the
homicide scene of a loved one. Member mothers are always on-call and
ready to provide compassion, care, and support for grieving families.
Immediately following the tragedy of a homicide, KC MIC is contacted by
the Kansas City Missouri Police Department and dispatched to homicide
scenes. While police are securing the scene for proper investigation, KC
MIC mothers provide trauma-informed crisis counseling to family
members of the victim. As mothers who have been through the pain
having our children stolen, KC MIC member mothers understand the
incredible importance of peer-support to families during their darkest
moment. Families are offered referrals to financial, legal, substance
abuse, employment and medical professionals and can serve as court
advocates as needed. They follow up with fruit baskets to families and
invitations to attend KC MIC’s monthly healing support groups.

Short-Term Success
Short-term success of homicide support is immediate comfort of grieving
family members; better cooperation with police officers at scenes by family
and residents; calmer citizens as KC MIC explains the need for physical
boundaries around the crime scenes; decreased tendency to retaliate
against perpetrators; acceptance of referrals to support agencies by family
members and associates of homicide victims; increase in capacity, skill,
and empowerment of member mothers with each new homicide scene
they work.
Long- Term Success
Long-term success of this program will result in the capacity for KC MIC to
attend all homicide scenes without overburdening any one member
mother; an expectation in the community that KC MIC will appear at
homicide scenes; understanding among all residents of the purpose and
mission of KC MIC at scenes; recognition of member mothers in their
signature tee shirts; understanding among citizens of the services KC MIC
provides and familiarity with their referral partners; an annual decrease in
homicides.
Program Success Monitored By
Program success will be tracked by the number of homicide scenes
attended; number of mothers involved; attendance by family members of
victims to monthly KC MIC healing support groups; frequency of personal
follow-up with bereaved families; and referrals of family members and atrisk individuals to support services. Development of evaluation methods,
tools, and database to collect evaluation data is a funding priority of KC
MIC.

Examples of Program Success
Member mothers journey from devastated parents to powerful presenters
and regular volunteers. Says Latrice Murray, “The first year, I bottomed
out. They [KC MIC] reached out to me. In time, Ms. Rosilyn began calling
me. Every time I saw her on the street she’d say, you’re ready [to join].
She would inspire me saying, you can do this. I just took the step, and
here I am in Mothers in Charge.”
“Ms. Rosilyn basically took me in as another child of hers, and she helped
me,” says Rolanda Trotter. “If it weren’t for Ms. Rosilyn, I don’t know
where I’d be today.”
Says Lenora Williams, “Mothers in Charge gave me the hope and the fight
to go on—for my child—and to be his voice and not let his death be in
vain. I was just sitting on the sidelines and Mothers in Charge reached
out to me and said, we’re here for you, no matter what—if you want to
scream and cry—they were just loving on me. I thank them for that,
because I don’t know where I’d be if it weren’t for Mothers in Charge."

Hope and Healing Support Program
Description
The monthly Hope and Healing Support Program meetings helps families
of victims cope with the devastating trauma of a violent death; helps them
develop connections with others and build resiliency during the grieving
process; and empowers them to make their community safer.
The program seeks to increase bonding to family and community, change
attitudes toward violence and teach behaviors that reduce involvement in
violence as a solution. It addresses the following protective factors:
positive attitudes towards family, nonagression-prone beliefs, parental
disapproval of aggressive behavior and neighborhood social cohesion.
The program serves families who primarily live in neighborhoods with
many risk factors including: economic deprivation, public housing, high
crime and violence rates, availability of drugs, low social cohesion,
number of neighborhood kids in trouble, low school connectedness, high
prior violence, low expectations/aspirations for school and high family
conflict.

Two clients offer testimony to KC MIC’s effectiveness in offering support
and building resiliency after their sons’ homicides:
"The first year, I bottomed out. They [KC MIC] reached out to me. In time,
Ms. Rosilyn began calling me. Every time I saw her on the street she'd
say, you're ready [to join]. She would inspire me, saying you can do this. I

Vigil and Canvassing Program
Description
KC MIC believes in celebrating the lives of fallen loved ones. The
organization’s member mothers, volunteers, and community members
honor the lives of homicide victims through community vigils. When a
community member is lost to murder, the whole community suffers. KC
MIC vigils empower families as they navigate their deep grief, anger, and
pain. Mothers, family, and community members stand together in
solidarity to demonstrate and declare to the Kansas City community that
violence is not tolerable. KC MIC mothers partner with KCPD detectives
by canvassing involved neighborhoods, gathering information and tips
regarding homicides and violent crimes to help solve and bring cases to
justice. They challenge community members to speak the truth about
criminal activity. KC MIC believes in breaking the status quo.
Category
Crime & Legal, General/Other Community Crime Prevention
Population Served
General/Unspecified, ,
Short-Term Success
The vigil program is successful when family and friends of homicide
victims feel safe and supported while they grieve the loss of their loved
one; where they feel understood and are free to express their outrage and
grief; where law enforcement officers also can express their grief and
concern; where residents feel safe providing information that might lead to
justice for the homicide victim; and where KC MIC mothers can be present
with victims’ mothers in a way that no one else can.
Long- Term Success
Long-term success of the vigil and canvassing program will include a staff
member dedicated in part to organizing vigils and creating a bridge at the
events between law enforcement and the community in which a
cooperative relationship flourishes. Long-term success ultimately will
result in more tips, more convictions, rejection of the status quo of families
and others protecting perpetrators, and ultimately, fewer homicides.
Program Success Monitored By
The vigil and canvassing program is evaluated by the following criteria:
1.Number of vigils organized in a year
2.Participation by member mothers
3.Number of community attendees
4.Level of calm and safety at the scene
5.Cooperation of local residents and businesses
6.Police presence and cooperation
7.Willingness of residents to provide information regarding the homicide
8.Interest by family members in follow-up visits from KC MIC
Examples of Program Success
Since the organization’s inception, KC MIC has organized more than 60
vigils. At least 500 community members have been reached with comfort
and support. Vigils provide not only condolence but pave the way for
justice for the victim and family. KC MIC helps distribute fliers about each
homicide and vigorously encourages community members to provide tips
to law officers that might solve homicides. Since those closest to the
victim may have some knowledge that could lead to solving the homicide,
KC MIC vigils increase the likelihood that killers will be taken off the street.
Testimonials come in the form of spontaneous hugs and thank-yous as
member mothers and Ms. Temple move about the city on their mission
and in their everyday lives. “No matter where I am, people come up to me
and ask to give me a hug for honoring their loved ones at vigils.”

KC No Violence Alliance Call-ins
Description
KC MIC is a valued presenter at KC NoVA “call-ins.” At these events,
persons being surveilled by the KCPD, KC FBI, and ATF are called in
quarterly (or every 60 days as deemed necessary) to be forewarned that
law enforcement is watching them, is prepared to arrest, indict, and
prosecute them to the fullest extent of the law, but also to refer them to
services that will help them build a crime-free life. After presentations by
law enforcement agencies, the prosecutor, mayor, formerly incarcerated
individuals, KC NoVA counselors, and Mothers in Charge, at-risk
individuals are served dinner and introduced to providers of services that
will help them leave a life of crime or break relationships with criminals.
KC MIC presentations frequently bring attendees to tears and over dinner,
following the call-in, establish healing relationships.

Offenders/Ex-Offenders, ,
Short-Term Success
Short-term goals for MIC member mothers include gaining the confidence
to tell their stories in public and participate in neighborhood canvassing of
high-crime areas to encourage residents to tell what they know about
crime; to distribute information about KC MIC; and when available,
distribute gun safety locks. Short-term goals for individuals called in by
law enforcement or parole officers include listening at a call-in, engaging
with service providers and mothers after the call-ins, following up with KC
NoVA counselors for one-on-one coaching, referrals to professionals, and
career planning.
Long- Term Success
KC MIC meets two long-term goals at KC NoVA call-ins:
1.Member mothers who have lost children to homicide build leadership
capacity, gain confidence giving presentations, and heal by taking back
their control and counseling young men and women who still can be
saved.
2.Sparing families the agony of losing a child to homicide or a long prison
sentence by helping potential perpetrators and victims receive the
services they need to break associations with criminals and build
productive, healthy lives.
3.Fewer homicides annually in Kansas City, Missouri.
Program Success Monitored By
Ms. Temple’s close association with all member mothers and newly
recruited mothers gives her direct insight into their needs, ongoing
development, training, and progress. One of KC MIC’s funding priorities is
development of tools and database to track and report the organization’s
programmatic outcomes. KC MIC’s close association with KC NoVA gives
KC MIC ready access to the outcomes of the KC NoVA call-in program.
10
Examples of Program Success
In a hospital emergency ward in 2015, Ms. Temple comforted the family of
a young man who had been shot and killed. After pledging KC MIC’s
ongoing support, Ms. Temple returned to her car where she saw a young
man she had spoken with at length at a call-in. She knew from
conversations she overheard in the hospital that this young man and his
friends were leaving to avenge the death of the young man’s childhood
friend. Rosilyn called the young man out of the car and spoke to him and
the others with the authority, force, and tenderness of a mother who had
lost her own son and who had committed her life to stopping senseless
killing. When she was finished, the young men agreed they shouldn’t take
the law into their own hands, promised they would not (which time proved
they did not) and disbanded. Such successful interventions are why Ms.
Temple won the 2015 Kansas City Division FBI Director’s Community
Leadership Award.
11
Youth and Adult Education Program
Description
KC MIC’s education program includes speaking engagements to civic and
faith-based groups on the organization’s activities and goals; homicide
statistics and the societal impact of homicide on the poor community, as
well as its eventual spread to other “safer” parts of the metropolitan area;
and requests for volunteers from the community at large to support the
efforts of KC MIC. The organization holds gun safety classes for adults
and youth and with the aid of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and
Firearms, distributes gun safety locks. KC MIC also is developing a four
week re-entry counseling program for incarcerated individuals due for
parole and presently is testing the program on a monthly basis in local
men’s and women’s correctional facilities.
Category
Crime & Legal, General/Other Crime Control & Prevention
Population Served
General/Unspecified, ,
Short-Term Success
Short-term success in each of the above-mentioned educational areas of
focus will be an increased number of speaking engagements in 2016 that
will increase awareness of the effect of homicide on both the poor and
affluent areas of metropolitan Kansas City; safe gun storage and handling;
and increased awareness of support services for parolees re-entering the
community to prevent recidivism.
Long- Term Success
KC MIC’s long-range goal is to educate a majority of Kansas City,
Missouri, youth, beginning in middle school, in gun safety awareness, safe
storage, and the proper response to discovery of a gun not stored safely.
Further, the long-term success of its adult education program will be
marked by a high percentage of the public learning safe gun handling and
storage; understanding the services offered by KC MIC; and
acknowledging the importance of engagement in one’s neighborhood by
keeping it clean and reporting suspicious activity. Long-term success for
KC MIC’s budding prison re-entry counseling program is to develop a
standard, four-week curriculum that can be taught by trained presenters
and institute it at prisons in Kansas and Missouri on an ongoing, rolling
basis.
Program Success Monitored By
KC MIC’s education program success will be measured by:
1.Number of speaking and training engagements held
2.Number of attendees at events
3.Involvement of member mothers
4.Amount of publicity gained through newspaper articles, television, and
radio interviews
5.Satisfaction surveys filled out by participants.
Examples of Program Success
Since 2014, KC MIC has made presentations to dozens of civic and faithbased organizations; numerous school, club, and after-school programs;
and been the subject of more than 100 newspaper, radio, and television
interviews. Attendees are moved by emotion when KC MIC member
mothers tell their tragic stories with strength and unbridled emotion to
bring home to listeners the importance of neighborhood engagement, gun
safety, and personal accountability. Attendees at KC MIC educational
events leave enlightened, motivated, humbled, and changed.
