A key component of Prisoner Related Advocacy and outreach are the many resources that are proactively networking together and advocating for prisoners across the country and abroad.
Networking and exchanging concepts and strategies for the betterment of a more humane criminal justice system. Without the combined efforts of both ministries and organizations who are committed to fostering public awareness, advocacy and oversight over the complex issues relating to our criminal justice policies and practices, many lives would be left without a voice; including those very lives who are currently making today's headlines regarding wrongful convictions. Many of these men were sitting on death row for crimes they did not commit.
Prisoner Reentry:​
Prisoner Reentry Resources span the nation. Prisoners are exiting prisons nationwide in massive numbers. Many of these individuals have nowhere to go and at most, no absolute footing to begin the journey forward in a successful and productive manner, due to the many barriers concerning persons with convictions, those exiting prison after long periods of time.
