CHARTING A PATH TOWARD LIBERATION
Unchained organizes and advocates to dismantle the carceral state and guarantee access to dynamic, culturally relevant education. We invest in people locked up by police and locked out of schools to build power and chart a path toward liberation by making racial and economic justice a reality.
INSIDE
By centering the leadership of currently incarcerated individuals in New York State, Unchained seeks to focus our work based on the expertise of those experiencing the structural oppression of the prison system.
OUTSIDE
Through involvement from formerly incarcerated individuals and loved ones of those currently incarcerated, and with support from community members, Unchained creates effective policies that promote stability and break the cycle of incarceration for those in re-entry.
#FREEDOMSIDE
Unchained believes in a world where solutions for poverty, mental and physical illness, racism, and other struggles don’t involve police or prisons and instead rely on strong communities and education systems that provide peace and justice for all.
