[CA] How do I sell a rental home that is part of a trust?

I need to sell a home that is a part of a trust. The trust states I must sell the home but the tenants (non beneficiaries) do not want to move.

[CA] What rights do I have to initiate contact with my younger siblings who are under my abusive mother and her husband’s care?

I am a 21-year-old who wants to get back in contact with my younger siblings, who range from ages 6 to 15. My mother and her husband were physically, verbally, and mentally abusive and have not let me have any contact with my siblings. Let’s say, through a private investigator, I was able to locate my siblings. What can I do to initiate contact with them without putting myself into any legal trouble? What rights do I have as a sibling? There was an incident where my grandfather and I reached out directly to my brother, and we contacted police regarding the abuse, but they did not intervene. This led to us taking my brother (age 12 at the time) out of town in an attempt to find a CPS office, which led to my grandfather and I being accused of kidnapping. However, no charges ended up being filed, and my brother was released by my mother to live in town with me. Would this situation affect my pursuit of contact with the rest of my siblings?
