The Prison Journalism Project is empowering incarcerated individuals by training them to become journalists and sharing their unique stories with the world. One such story is about a lifesentenced prisoner who found inspiration in an unlikely prison pet a caterpillar named Squishington.
The Prison Journalism Project has provided incarcerated individuals, particularly women, with a platform to express their experiences and struggles within the prison system. The initiative offers training and resources to aspiring writers that not only gives a voice to those who are often silenced but also raises awareness about genderspecific challenges faced by female inmates.
