Prisoners’ Justice Day – August 10, 2023
Prisoners’ Justice Day
August 10, 2023
We are in solidarity with imprisoned community members across Ontario and beyond for Prisoners’ Justice Day 2023 to draw attention to:
1) The alarming and inhumane deaths that are increasing behind the bars of our prison systems
2) The disproportionate rate of HIV and HCV impacting imprisoned community members
3) The abusive treatment towards imprisoned people
4) Community activism initiatives that support imprisoned people and are working to end imprisonment as a response to social problems
5) The need for accountability and transparency from governing bodies
