The Problem
Over population of prisons and the environmental hazards prisons create.
Why It's Important
Large percentage of people who are incarcerated are poor people and people of color. I was incarcerated in the past and received no real rehabilitation.
The Plan Of Action
Organize young people and communities to challenge this issue. Youth will be educated on public policy and how to create their own policies.
How Can Others Get Involved?
People can provide time to work with young people. Volunteer to help youth in not just homework but to help them build up their leadership. We need a wide range of political support to address the over population of prisons.
