Mission and Outreach

Mass Incarceration Task Force Meeting

Monday, April 7, 7:00 - 8:30 PM on Zoom


The MITF is motivated by the deep conviction that every human being is a beloved child of God. We also realize, in the words of justice advocate Bryan Stevenson, that “You can’t understand most of the important things from a distance. You have to get close.” In addition to hearing updates from our Action Groups, we will be discussing how the current cuts to the federal government are impacting non-profit organizations working to support wrongly convicted and incarcerated persons and their families. Whether you are curious or already involved, please join us! All are welcome, including people without a religious affiliation.


Contact Anne Kuhn to receive details and the Zoom link.
