Decarceration During COVID-19: A Messaging Toolkit for Campaigns for Mass Release

This document provides some guidance and tools for families, organizers, and advocates who are demanding real decarceration and health equity while pushing back against the false narratives that invoke public health in order to uphold mass criminalization and incarceration during COVID-19. In this document you will find:

  • A set of core organizing principles to support calls for mass release AND public health. 

  • A set of answers to common questions and push-back organizers may be facing in their local campaigns. 

We hope this document can serve as a tool and know it will grow and change as we collectively push towards decarceration and liberation.
