RAPP challenges a fundamental pillar of mass incarceration: reliance on a system of permanent punishment, a racist culture of retribution and revenge rather than rehabilitation and healing. We mobilize currently and formerly incarcerated people, their families, and other concerned community members. From this powerful base we work to raise public awareness about the destructiveness of mass incarceration and the benefits to society in releasing aging people, including those convicted of violent crimes. We promote the use of key mechanisms for release, such as parole, compassionate release, clemency, and policy changes. Our goal is to dismantle the racist punishment system. We initiated and lead the People’s Campaign for Parole Justice to change the legal structures that prevent the release of thousands of New Yorkers ready to rejoin their families and communities.
