Legislative Education Day 2021
We are calling on all advocates, formally incarcerated, solitary survivors, families, concerned citizens and allies to join us in support of the Open MI Door campaign at the capital on Wednesday, June 16th, 2021. We need to let our legislators know about the dangers of solitary confinement and the impact it has on individuals, families, and our community. We will have our model solitary cell out all day and are holding a press conference to raise awareness about the Open MI Door campaign to end solitary and advance safer, more therapeutic alternatives to segregation in Michigan. We also will be having a virtual event with special guest, Franklin Deese, author of "From Inmate to Mayor." We are now booking virtual legislative appointments. Please complete the form linked below if you would like to meet with your legislators. Legislative Education Day is a great day to come together and express the need for important criminal justice reforms. We urge you to participate and share your story with legislators. Our lived experiences can make an impact! We have included four short training videos to help families and advocates navigate the legislative process and prepare for meeting with legislators. If you have any questions, please contact our outreach coordinator at twalker@micpr.org |
