Abolition Family! Given the highly restrictive conditions which our kinmates have been enduring throughout this pandemic, Let's Get Free is expanding our times ...for gathering virtually to write letters to our family on the inside, which we call Letters from Home! As our next session will occur on a Wednesday, we wanted to make this a CADBI-West gathering as well. Join us this Wednesday! January 27. 7-8:30pm. CADBI-West/ Let's Get Free Virtual Letter Writing Night. This will be a space of healing fellowship and communication with our loved ones and comrades held captive in PA prisons. Now more than ever, we need to come together in the strength of our community and let our people on the inside know they are not alone!!! If you have been thinking of getting more connected, this is a great opportunity. If you are new, we have a list of people you can write. You can join this Letter writing event by visiting the link in the flyer below linktr.ee/womeninprison link in bio Best wishes to your week. Hope to see some of you Wednesday. Alan
