| dc.description | The purpose of this guide is to provide advocates (who are working outside facilities or agencies) with practical information about working on policy reforms in prisons and jails. It is intended for advocates who would like to work, or are working, with agencies that control jails, prisons, and other detention facilities, such as local, state, or federal corrections or detention agencies, to develop and implement more just and humane policies toward transgender and LGBTQ people. Advocates could include state or local transgender organizations, statewide LGBTQ equality groups, legal advocacy groups, or groups of grassroots activists, as well as organizations already working on prison reform or criminal justice issues that want to incorporate the concerns of LGBTQ people in their work. This guide is mainly focused on advocacy to improve conditions for transgender people in jails, prisons, and other confinement facilities. While taking immediate actions to protect transgender and LGBTQ people from some of the worst harms they face behind bars is critical, we believe reforming jails and prisons can never be a complete solution. Too many people go to too many prisons for far too long in the U.S.—at tremendous human, and fiscal cost to all of us. | en_US |
