Why is the Warden enforcing this? One phone call as week? Why the restrictions?
Will you be welcoming an incarcerated individual into your home in the coming months? A major television network is now casting for an upcoming series on reentry!
We are looking for people who will be opening their home to a returning citizen with a non-violent record. Individuals may not be related or romantically involved with one another.
If you or anyone you know fit these criteria – please send an email to us at [email protected] , comment below or DM me.
Hope everyone stays safe!
This is a very important event and if everyone throws down with us, it will put CPS on blast for their corrupt, unjust, racist, inept, and anti-family practices.
We are able to arrange and reimburse for transportation and also possibly cover hoteling.
Please register and please please spread the word.
