Make your own ChilOut clothing
You can buy ChilOut T-shirts online, but perhaps you have some other piece of clothing you want to wear in support? One mum has had children's bibs printed with the 'Kids don't belong in detention centres" theme. Pick your own garment and add the ChilOut themes using iron-on transfer paper.
