WE ARE ALSO ALWAYS IN NEED OF OTHER MEANS OF SUPPORT:
* OUTREACH INSIDE PRISONS – We are in the process of stepping up our outreach efforts into prisons across Canada. If you have any contacts with people or organizations that do work on the inside, and would be willing to put us in touch, that would be great. Contacts with people who work within prisons can also be useful in this regard.
* FINDING NON-INCARCERATED PENPALS – We are always trying to find new penpals on the outside to respond to our ongoing requests from folks inside prisons. If you are able to help out with any outreach among outside communities, this is an area we are always in need of help with. Outreach within gay, lesbian, transsexual / transgender, queer communities especially needed.
* TRANSLATION – We are always in need of translation and translators (English/French in particular), both for day to day admin / correspondence, as well as longer term translation of our resources for the resource library.
* SPECIAL EVENTS – We often need additional help when putting together special events, like the film screening last night. If you’d like, we can keep you posted about special projects and events, and let you know where you can plug in. (Note most of our events take place in Montreal)
* If you have other ideas about how you or your organization could support the Prisoner Correspondence Project, don’t hesitate to be in touch.
