The Prison Journalism Project launched the Prison Journalism Navigator, a new database that provides tools, resources, and unique insights aimed at spurring greater collaboration between external media outlets and incarcerated writers.
"The Prison Journalism Navigator is a living resource with practical tools designed to help elevate the voices and critical perspectives of incarcerated writers and journalists into broader conversations about incarceration and its broader impact on society," said Yukari Kane, co-founder and co-executive director of PJP.
The Navigator includes tips, suggestions, and information about—but not limited to—contacting incarcerated people, working with incarcerated writers, and a reporters’ glossary of prison jargon.
