*Did you fight for our own needs while incarcerated and when released?
*Have you demanded health care for your loved ones while they were behind bars?
*Have you worked to get your clients services when they were released?
*Have you supported friends through the lonely and difficult transition back home?
*Have you struggled to win systemic changes to the prison health care system?

The 1st Annual HIV in Prison Summit is a day for ALL of us.

The 1st Annual HIV in Prison Summit will bring ex-offenders, social service providers, and advocates together for a day long strategy meeting on the health care needs of people who are incarcerated and recently released. We will discuss the health care crisis in Philadelphia jails, strategize on how to meet the needs of people while incarcerated and when they return to their communities, & develop a plan for increased advocacy and activism on prison health care issues.
