Coalition for Women Prisoners (CCWP), a grassroots social justice
organization, with members inside and outside of prison, that
challenges the institutional violence imposed on women, transgender
people, and communities of color by the prison industrial complex
(PIC). We see the struggle for racial and gender justice as central
to dismantling the PIC and we prioritize the leadership of the
people, families, and communities most impacted in building this movement.

Universalists Social Justice Committee
