Care is a political strategy.
We must build systems rooted in healing, not punishment.
Leadership must come from those most impacted.
Our work must be guided by people who have a lived experience of incarceration, state violence, and structural harm.
Liberation is intersectional.
Our strategies must uplift trans and queer voices, racial and disability justice, and advance survivor-led solutions.
We are accountable to each other
We embrace honest reflection, collective care, and sustainable movement-building.
