Recently we sent out letters again to the women serving life sentences at Taycheedah because we want to remind them that we are there to listen and offer what advocacy we can. We have received several responses and they seem to have a common thread. Concerns about the lack of timely and effective medial treatment, loneliness, lack of programming and depression. The women's prison system is overcrowded and cannot provide the level of services that women are needing. We advocate for positive systems change.
Even though these women are in prison humane treatment is a civil right and we will never be quiet about that.

Would you consider giving? We are looking to acquire 300 pairs of new socks for our Welcome home kits for formerly incarcerated women. Every month women are released from the Wisconsin Women's Correctional System to our communities. Many of the women come out with little but the clothes on their backs. Our Kits provide basic personal essentials such as soap, washcloths, tooth brush/paste, deodorant and socks. Kits are shipped statewide. With cold weather coming we try and put more than one pair in each box. Please see the flyer
