The Abolition Alliance is a collective of organizations, CBO’s, For-Profit & Non-Profits who are dedicated to the Complete change of America’s addiction to its Prison Industrial Complex. From Slavery we are still fighting the same system that remands poor people into control which is still just a evolved system of slavery. some people think abolition means the world will turn into a mad max movie scene, but even transforming the punitive profiting system into institutions of higher education & true rehabilitation we the people can abolish what incarceration is today.
America's criminal justice system undermines the promise of who we can and should be, there is no healing or repairing a system birthed in chattel slavery.
Over-Incarceration Hurts Us All !! America’s criminal justice system locks up too many people for too long, preventing millions of Americans from reaching their full potential majority people of color. Our criminal justice system poses one of the greatest challenges confronting our country today. This bloated, predatory system comes at significant cost to taxpayers at the local, state, and federal level even as it fails to make us safer or create more opportunity. It causes substantial harm, especially to communities of color and poor people, and the damage spreads far beyond those incarcerated. It strips basic rights and opportunity from entire families and communities with effects felt across generations. our current criminal justice system undermines the promise of what America can and should be.
The Alliance stands together in a united mission to:
Serve those incarcerated, previously incarcerated & their families without discrimination,
Work collaboratively to dismantle the system of Injustice & the label of Criminal placed on those injustice & addition impacted,
Prioritize the voices & leadership of those directly impacted by the issues they advocate for, & gainfully employ those justice impacted,
Collaborate to educate the community & provide resources Free of Charge to those Directly Impacted,
say No to Torture and Yes to caring communities.
