Empowerment Avenue is an organization that bridges the gap between writers and artists in prisons and mainstream venues to amplify the voice of those in prisons, support their "pre-entry" through professional development before an individual is released from prison, and ultimately harness this creative expression as a path toward decarceration and public safety.
