About Us
Capturing Lived Experiences.
Civil servants and federal contractors have long played a crucial role in keeping the U.S. government running and serving the American public. Beginning in January 2025, federal employees and contractors across the United States have experienced profound and rapid changes. Federal agencies have faced widespread disruptions. Tens of thousands of civil servants have been laid off, and numerous government contracts have been canceled. These changes have impacted individuals, families, communities, and the delivery of public services.
