Do you have Loved Ones incarcerated in the Indiana area or other facilities?.
During this current pandemic many inmates are suffering. There are a high number of infections and deaths at many institutions. Inmates are writing in and sharing their panics of being locked in rooms with no access to toilets, no air conditioning, denial of phone access on the "FREE CALL DAYS", and very little PPE protection being distributed. Most facilities are locked down 23 hours a day. These conditions are very taxing on any human being.
Some prisons have made masks from old inmate uniforms. Some facilities are making hand sanitizer, but it is not enough to keep the staff nor the inmates safe.
Phone calls, letters, texts, postcards, and greeting cards are ways to inspire and encourage the inmates to keep pushing on. After all, these are your future neighbors.
