Donate to Uncuffed
Join Uncuffed in our mission to empower incarcerated people through storytelling.

For over ten years, our training programs have produced award-winning journalism, changed the narrative about people in prison, and launched careers in media and advocacy.

Help us launch our first program in a women's prison in 2024.
Formerly incarcerated leaders Aminah Elster (Unapologetically HERS), Thanh Tran (Uncuffed, Ella Baker Center), Betty McKay (Essie Justice Group), Earlonne Woods (Ear Hustle), and Piper Kerman (Orange is the New Black)
“Can you imagine the stories that women in prisons have? We’re mothers, we’re sisters, we’re wives, we’re friends. And our stories need to be heard."
– Uncuffed Advisory Board member Betty McKay
Formerly incarcerated 27 years
at the California Institution for Women
