Three people have died in less than a week in Los Angeles County jails—bringing this year's death toll to 10.

Angelenos can't wait any longer for action. LA must reduce the jail population, invest in alternatives to incarceration, and improve conditions. vera.org/news/la-county…

In the U.S., 1.8 million people are incarcerated in a system that prioritizes punishment over rehabilitation.

This doesn’t have to be our reality. We can transform this flawed system into one that values dignity and creates safer communities for all.

A conviction history should not be a barrier to housing, yet discrimination and exclusionary practices make reentry overly burdensome and difficult.

Removing barriers to housing ensures those impacted by the criminal legal system get a #FairChance to reenter their communities.
