Justice should heal NOT harm! WHAT IF our corrections systems truly lived up to their nameâand corrected injustices? đ€ @Arnold_Ventures + @SaferPrisons + @FAMMFoundation = When prisons are safer, communities are stronger. FAMM is fighting for both.

Healed people, heal people. Safer prisons = safer communities. No matter if you work in or reside in prison, every person deserves humane treatment. Justice should heal NOT harm! #Justice #Humanity #FAMM #SaferPrisonsSaferCommunities
Happy and healthy correctional officers can have a huge impact on the way a prison functions. As @Shaneva0909 of @FAMMFoundation says, creating better environments in prisons can lead to âa harvestâ for both incarcerated people and staff.

For far too many in the U.S., Fatherâs Day is a grim reminder that incarceration affects entire families, not just the people behind bars. Keeping parents out of jail & prison is critical to protect children from the known harms of parental incarceration. (@girlsforachange)

She stood in the doorway at 12:04 justifying her refusal while turning away another customer. Now weâre scrambling to find a truckâdriving 80 miles round trip because a rep wouldnât process a reservation made in advance. This is how loyal customers are treated?

As a @Hertz Presidential Circle member, Iâm speechless. Had a 12pm reservation in Mokena, IL. Arrived at 11:58âdoors locked. Agent refused to honor my booking, said she doesnât get OT. Told us to drive 45 miles to the airport. Unacceptable. #Hertz #CustomerServiceFail

Harsh sentences have led to 1 in 7 in the U.S. serving life, & many others facing decades behind bars. People evolve - our laws must, too. Support Second Look Laws in Your State! #SecondLookLaws #JusticeReform

đš NEW report from @FWDus shows what so many families have long known: mass incarceration extracts a steep âfamily tax.â My own family felt that burden when my husbandâs home-confinement rules forced us to pay for two households and put a $90k lien on our home. No family should

The BOP canât find staff to manage its existing facilities. The agency has a $3 billion infrastructure backlog. DOJ is facing deep cuts and itâs not clear BOP will avoid a reduction. Not sure how this idea fits that reality.

Alabamaâs oldest incarcerated person just died at 106. Itâs hard to fathom why someone over a century old needed to live out their final days in custody. At some point, punishment must make room for compassion. These extreme sentences have to give.

The Illinois Constitution aims to restore individuals to useful citizenship. HB 2367 supports this by allowing those in custody to earn sentence reductions through education, work, and programmingâhelping them successfully reintegrate into society. Urge your lawmakers to support
