Rally for Parole Justice

The New York State Parole Board is in a state of crisis. With only 12 seated Commissioners and seven vacancies, parole interviews are being postponed, applicant files are going unread and caseloads have become unmanageable.

Release rates have also dipped since a short-term increase last year. 

As a result, thousands of our loved ones remain locked up and away from their families, serving decades in prison for crimes they were convicted of many years ago. 

Please join us to demand change now:

RALLY FOR PAROLE JUSTICE 

THURSDAY, APRIL 4TH at 10AM

GOV. CUOMO’S NYC OFFICE

633 3rd Ave (between 40th and 41st)

We’ll demand the Governor fully staff the Board by appointing seven new Commissioners  who believe in principles of mercy, redemption and transformation.

We’ll demand an increase in release rates and the release of our elders and loved ones from prison. 

Please email Mark Shervington with questions: markshervington1@gmail.com.

SEE YOU THERE!
