CONNECT. LEARN. ACT
The Frederick Douglass Project for Justice seeks to change the public’s perception of the criminal justice system by becoming proximate with the humanity of incarcerated people.
CONNECT
Bringing people into prisons creates human connections, enables meaningful conversations, and changes the way we all think and act.
LEARN
The media and popular culture have perpetuated stereotypes about incarcerated people, thus promoting stigma and masking the very real and enduring challenges of prison.
ACT
Human interaction can be transformative.
