Author’s Note
With more than two million incarcerated people in the United States, an additional six
million people on probation or parole and an estimated sixty-eight million Americans with
criminal records, there are endless opportunities for you to do something about criminal
justice policy or help the incarcerated or formerly incarcerated. If you have interest in
working with or supporting volunteer programs that serve incarcerated people, organizations
that provide re-entry assistance to the formerly incarcerated or organizations around the
globe that seek reform of criminal justice policy, please contact us at the Equal Justice
Initiative in Montgomery, Alabama. You can visit our website at http://www.eji.org or email us at
