Please join North Brooklyn Mutual Aid, BPL's Justice Initiatives, and the Greenpoint Library to connect with incarcerated folks through letter writing.
All letter writing materials will be provided along with guidelines on how to be a supportive correspondent and how to navigate Department of Corrections mailing restrictions.
We will be connecting with pen pals provided by Black and Pink, a prison abolitionist organization dedicated to abolishing the criminal punishment system and liberating LGBTQIA2S+ people and people living with HIV/AIDS who are affected by that system through advocacy, support, and organizing.
Drop-in anytime between 4PM and 7PM. In case of poor weather, we will meet in Eco Lab 2. Letter writing kits will be provided if covid-preventative room capacities are reached.
