Today, I want to shout out the Women's Prison Association @WPA_NYC for their role in helping myself and so many others take the necessary steps into assimilating back into society. It is not easy to rejoin society after you feel so betrayed, but this group is a live saver💪🏿🩷

cbsnews.com/newyork/news/a… We applaud @ManhattanDA for his decision. This is why WPA does what we do. We prioritize alternative to incarceration (ATI) programming for women because we believe women belong with their families, not behind bars.

Over the last four decades, the number of women in U.S. prisons has increased by 834%. That’s more than twice the rate of men. Donating on behalf of #WPAfallsoiree helps us continue to place thier needs front and center. #endmassincarceration #supportwpa l8r.it/xPAB
