Amistad Law Project

Mission

Amistad Law Project is organizing to end mass incarceration in Pennsylvania. Through strategic campaigns and legal advocacy, we advance healing justice for communities harmed by the criminal legal system, social inequality, and violence. Amistad promotes practical abolition rooted in a Black feminist vision of collective care. This means we fight to abolish death by incarceration, win second chances for people with extreme sentences, and create alternatives to the police, like mobile crisis teams. We believe public safety starts with social equality and work to build a future where our communities have the material resources they need to thrive.
