Given Mr. Mayers’ background as a national expert, his insights and knowledge on drafting and amending legislative language reflect real equity and inclusivity. Carlton is a talented professional with a big heart. I truly enjoyed working with him on legislation and other community issues.

"Carlton Mayers brought an exceptional level of commitment to supporting the Michigan Center for Youth Justice (MCYJ) and its local partners in advocating for justice reform in Kalamazoo County. His strategic approach and deep understanding of systemic issues were instrumental in advancing our goals, particularly in collaborating with community partners to increase data transparency and accountability within the justice system. Carlton's work was also pivotal in expanding diversion programs, which are crucial for reducing racial disparities for Black and Brown youth. His community-centered and equity-focused perspective not only made a significant impact on MCYJ's initiatives but also ensured that our efforts were closely aligned with the needs and voices of the Kalamazoo community. Carlton represented MCYJ with integrity and dedication, and his work has been invaluable to our ongoing work in youth justice reform."
"Ignoring these cries and failing to respond to this movement is simply not an option - for peace cannot exist where justice is not served"
– Representative John Lewis
