By acting in solidarity with and elevating the voices of those most impacted, California Prison Focus works to expose and end human rights abuses against people incarcerated in California.
(19)
What CPF Does: * We stand up strong against the cruel and torturous conditions of the California prison system, especially advocating for the immediate shut down of all SHU (Security Housing Units) cells and similar conditions of solitary confinement. * We publish a quarterly magazine, Prison Focus, distributed free to SHU prisoners, $5 a year to other prisoners, and $20 a year to former prisoners, their family members, activists, and friends of CPF. * We travel regularly to Pelican Bay, Corcoran, and other state prisons to uncover and disseminate information on the current conditions prisoners must endure.
Mission: California Prison Focus works to abolish the California prison system in its present condition. We investigate and expose human rights abuses with the goal of ending long term isolation, medical neglect, and all forms of discrimination. We are community activists, prisoners, and their families educating and inspiring the public to demand change.
