Share Your Story of Incarceration with Us

Join us in building a virtual quilt of your own stories. Incarceration affects our communities deeply; from family to friends to lost chapters with those we love. We know its impact is widespread and welcome anyone touched by this work to share their own words in any form: poetry, prose, simple writing, anything. We'd love to hear from you and build a virtual quilt of resilience together. 

Our Virtual Quilt of Resilience

  • My father was unexpectedly incarcerated before my 30th birthday. It drastically changed the trajectory of my life but I am so glad it invited me into a world I never gave thought to before. The people I have met and the work I have done to help share the stories of incarcerated women through this project has been one of the highlights of my life. I am so proud to be a part of this incredible project and I hope everyone enjoys it as much as we did bringing it to life.
