Our Story

About Black Sheep Advocacy

My name is Marina Thomas, Founder and Chief Advocate of Black Sheep Advocacy.

I created Black Sheep Advocacy because I know what it feels like to be overwhelmed by life.

Mental health strugglesTraumaGriefDisabilityFamily courtSingle parenthoodPaperworkMissed appointmentsFeeling unheard

I am here to bridge the gap between professional services and having someone who genuinely cares walking beside you.

My role is not to provide legal advice or legal representation. My role is to provide compassionate advocacy, court organization, emotional support, practical assistance, and community resource navigation so clients feel organized, prepared, empowered, and never alone.

Every person deserves kindness.

Every person deserves dignity.

Every person deserves to be heard.
