Abolish Private Prisons

Abolish Private Prisons is a non-profit organization based in Phoenix, Arizona, dedicated to ending the exploitation of individuals incarcerated in private prisons for profit. The organization seeks to challenge the constitutionality of profit-driven incarceration through federal court cases, inspired by landmark legal battles like Brown v. Board of Education.

With a focus on raising awareness and mobilizing support, Abolish Private Prisons collaborates with a diverse coalition of groups, including churches, legal organizations, and labor groups, who share their vision for a more just criminal justice system. By advocating for the abolition of private prisons, they aim to eliminate the incentives that lead to longer sentences and reduced rehabilitative efforts for incarcerated individuals.
