Smart Justice Advocacy Day

West Virginia’s incarceration crisis continues: our regional jails are as overcrowded and dangerous as ever before, West Virginians with criminal convictions struggle to find stability after incarceration, and people incarcerated are denied access to basic necessities.

The good news is that the movement for criminal law reform is growing in the Mountain State and we invite you to be a part of this positive momentum at Smart Justice Advocacy Day!
