Join The National Council and Families for Justice as Healing to learn about our mission, values, history, and legislative priorities for 2024.

See how you can plug in to the FreeHer Campaign in MA, and learn about how the design community can abstain from carceral construction! We will share our vision for decarceration and reimagining communities on the way to abolition, and make space for Q&A!

Once a month we will come together to support our women in Niantic CI. We will show our love and support by creating a State of CT quilt with the name of our comrades who are serving decades of prison time. We support and honor by creating quilts around the country of our comrades serving long prison sentences which will become a part of a quilting tour done yearly. Come out and support in the love of creating this memorable piece of art as we remember them all. FreeHerCT
