Prison Advocacy & Reporting Directory

Find the right outside contact when something is going wrong inside a prison, jail, detention facility, or correctional institution.

When somebody you care about tells you something is wrong inside, figuring out who to call can become a problem of its own. This directory is designed to help you find the agency, office, organization or reporting channel that may be appropriate for the issue.

This directory provides contact information and general reporting guidance. It is not legal advice and The Prison Humanity Project cannot guarantee how any agency or organization will respond.
