On May 24, 2022, Chicago Beyond hosted a virtual conversation hosted by Dr. Nneka Jones Tapia (Managing Director of Justice Initiatives, Chicago Beyond) with Ronald Simpson-Bey (Executive Vice President, JustLeadershipUSA) and Andy Potter (Founder, One Voice United) on instilling safety within U.S. prisons and jails.
Our prisons and jails are unsafe for the communities inside and outside their walls. “Do I Have the Right to Feel Safe?” combines the perspectives of current and former correctional administrators as well as people with lived experience of the carceral system in order to provide a unifying vision that shifts our concept of safety from one predicated on control to one that creates the conditions for all community members — inside and outside of prison walls — to be and feel protected, resilient, and whole. That is holistic safety.
In our 10th anniversary year, JustLeadershipUSA’s work of educating, elevating, and empowering justice-impacted leaders continues and is growing even stronger!
This is going to be a very special time to look back on the past decade of JLUSA’s important work, the 1,600+ leaders we have helped get to the next level in their work, and even more importantly, we will look ahead to the next 10 years and beyond!
We can’t do this without you. We need your support to help us continue to do this work now and into the future. By making a donation in honor of JLUSA’s 10th anniversary year, you are saying to the amazing leaders in our network who represent the 70+ million Americans who have been directly impacted by the criminal legal system, “I see you, and I support you!”
Please give a one-time $100 gift or set up a recurring $10 monthly donation to celebrate JLUSA’s 10th anniversary year, and together we will build a fair and just U.S. Thank you!
