Welcome to New Hope Initiative
Prison Reform Resulting in a Safer Society in Our Nation.
ABOUT NEW HOPE INITIATIVE
We are a collective of felons and families of felons who believe in the need for major criminal justice reform within our country and our communities. Across the United States, there are 2.5 million incarcerated individuals, 35 million ex-felons, and 7 million on probation or parole. There are approximately 200 million people in the country who are directly affected by these issues in one way or another. Potentially, and very possibly, we can unite to be a family of two-thirds of the population of this country.
“We must learn that passively to accept an unjust system is to cooperate with that system, and thereby to become a participant in its evil”
— Dr. Martin Luther King Jr
