Feb. 13: Inside/Outside Letter-Writing Night

Thursday, January 9, 2025 | 6:00 p.m. – 8:00 p.m.
Writers Room
229 N. 34th St., 3rd Floor, Philadelphia, PA

Join the Abolitionist Law Center, Philadelphia Muslim Freedom Fund, and Human Rights Coalition for in-person letter-writing to incarcerated people in Pennsylvania!

Every day, more than 36,000 men and women are housed in one of 24 prisons in PA. Currently and formerly incarcerated survivors have stated again and again how important letters of support are to their well-being.  Letters are also important strategies to build relationships, organizing across prison walls, and have been critical to social movements everywhere.

Join us in responding to letters from people on the inside who are facing grave human rights abuses and seeking support. There will also be an opportunity to sign up to be a long-term correspondent to folks who are surviving solitary confinement. Solidarity with prisoners now!

The space is wheelchair-accessible. Light snacks and drinks will be provided.

Our letter-writing nights take place on the second Thursday of every month.
