MISSION STATEMENT

It is the intention of the ""Prison Reform Unity Project"" to:

Coordinate an annual day of unity for all human rights and prison reform groups.

Facilitate with organizations, the families and friends of prisoners and people of conscience to conduct annual rallies at state capitols, prisons and other appropriate sites across America in support of human rights and prison reform.

Assist existing organizations to cement friendships and create networks, which will permit them to better work together to achieve their goals toward the cause of human rights and prison reform.

Bring together individuals to actively participate with activist groups on Prison Reform Unity Day thereby encouraging people to join the existing organizations, thus strengthening and further empowering them

Form a grass roots block of enlightened and educated activists, families and friends of prisoners and concerned citizens of such massive numbers that we can effect with our votes the enactment of legislation that affects prison human rights issues.
