Robyn Hasan Simpson (Leading with Conviction™ 2022), Executive Director of Women on the Rise, and Dominique Grant (LwC 2024 participant), Campaign and Operations Manager for Women on the Rise, today are celebrating the decision by Fulton County, Georgia, to not pursue a new $2 billion dollar jail project.
As they said in their campaign against the project, “Our communities need resources, not more jails.”
Our communities need resources,
not more jails.
Today, we celebrate that Fulton County has scrapped the plan! 🙌🏽 The fight continues as we push for resources and to decarcerate the jail. In 2 months, the Center for Diversion Services & Crisis Center will open as we continue! #communityovercages pic.twitter.com/EMRmoLUobg
