We had a great time with on Friday writing notes and thoughts of support to our community members in Arizona prisons for the holiday season. It is always a great event that is a great start to celebrating gratitude, generosity and connections for this time of year.
Unfortunately we learned about a new policy from AZ Dept of Corrections that will restrict general mail starting next week. While Read Between the Bars won't be impacted at the moment, this is the start of a restriction on outside communications that keep people connected, which aids in reducing recidivism and crime.
We are still learning about the impacts of this, so stay tuned for next steps.

A huge THANK YOU to all our volunteers who showed up with strength and good spirits this weekend to help Read Between the Bars move into our new (temporary) library!
We could not have done this without you all showing up and supporting our work. We so appreciate our Tucson community 🤗
Stay tuned for updates for our next packing parties! If you want information be sure you're on our mailing list -- join here: https://www.readbetweenthebars.org/get-involved
