NJ Decarcerator Must Get Into Hands of Families and Incarcerated Men, Women & Youth

I implore everyone in NJ that stands behind the demand to end mass incarceration to work cooperatively on the effort to distribute the 2nd Issue of The NJ Decarcerator to families of incarcerated men and women and to the incarcerated themselves.

As the publisher of the paper we can legitimately mail the paper into facilities to incarcerated men and women.   It is important though that there be some sort of request of me to send the paper.
If you, or anyone you know, especially family members of incarcerated men, women and youth want to get a copy of the paper sent to you, please provide send your mailing address to Decarc@DecarcerateNJ.org .

If you want to distribute the paper to your organization, at events or in the community, please ask for 50 copies to be sent.

If a member of your family or a friend of yours is incarcerated and you want to gift them with a complimentary promotional copy of the current issue of The NJ Decarcerator should copy the following text and email it to Decarc@DecarcerateNJ.org :

Dear Editor of NJ Decarcerator,

Please send a complimentary promotional copy of The NJ Decarcerator to my friend / relative in the
_______________________ facility, ID# _____________________.

Sincerely,
<your name>

You can use this format to request papers for those in NJ based facilities as well as to those in facilities in other states as well.

Feel free to request the paper for more than one incarcerated man or woman.

Also – we need your help in getting the paper especially to immediate family members of incarcerated men and women.  Please send mailing addresses to Decarc@DecarcerateNJ.org of anyone you know that got people on the inside.

The paper will be shared / mailed to you and yours free of charge to you.
We welcome postage donations at this site but it is not a requirement that you personally donate to get a paper sent your way. 


We also are interested in setting up mailing workshop meetings where we get groups of people together to brainstorm about who to send the paper to.

Organizations that are willing to mail the paper to 50 of their key members should contact us as well and we can send you a bundle of 50 papers.

To be clear – we will mail the paper to whomever wants a copy – not just those whose family members are caught up in the system.  If you want a copy – drop a line to Decarc@DecarcerateNJ.org .


If you have ideas as to places and organizations to get the paper out to – please share them at that e-mail address or by calling 908-881-5275.
