The Inside-Out Prison Exchange Program
“That wall isn’t there just to keep me in, but to keep you out.”
- Tyrone W. (prison participant)
Education through which we are able to encounter each other, especially across profound social barriers, is transformative and allows problems to be approached in new and different ways.
The Inside-Out Prison Exchange Program increases opportunities for men and women, inside and outside of prison, to have transformative learning experiences that emphasize collaboration and dialogue, inviting participants to take leadership in addressing crime, justice, and other issues of social concern.
