I personally find this work incredibly fulfilling. It’s amazing to think that something as simple as writing a letter can help bridge gaps and provide comfort to someone who might otherwise feel completely alone. If you’re thinking about joining, don’t hesitate—it’s such a rewarding experience. Let me know if you have any questions along the way, and I’ll do my best to guide you through it!

LGBTQIA Pride Month and the Midwest Trans Prisoner Penpal Project
"Our mission is to combat the isolation and deprivation that the prison system imposes on individuals, particularly those who identify as trans, queer, or gender-variant. These communities are disproportionately targeted by law enforcement and face harsher sentences. Prisons often further alienate trans individuals, cutting them off from meaningful human connections. We believe that fostering friendships and exchanging life stories through letter-writing is a powerful way to understand the prison experience and break down barriers. This initiative is part of our broader vision for a world without incarceration." – MWTPPP
