"Lifting our voices..."
Your newsletter is sincerely appreciated from us whom are incarcerated. We sometimes have such a hard time finding stuff out and a lot of the time it feels like our voices aren’t being heard… Thank you for giving the incarcerated this platform and treasure trove of information.

I’d like to start by saying thank you for all the hard work those of you in your organization put forth for those of us with marginalized voices. This is the first time I am writing your organization or any organization period.

"The Community letter was a god send"
I was recently released from Oregon Correctional Center... The Community letter was a god send. It kept everything real and gave me a contact to the outside. A very important point of access to humane life... Thank you very much. I'm enclosing what I can afford at this time... I wish I could send more.

"...advocating for us behind the walls"
I...want to pay The Community Staff a great nod of respect and show my appreciation for all of the hard work that y'all do. It's vital that y'all be lifted up and encouraged for all of your efforts in advocating for us behind the walls. Please stay empowered and know that all of your work is critical to the success of those of us who knowingly and unknowingly truly need it.
