Congratulations to director Rebecca Ginsburg and the Education Justice project team on more than $1.5M in new funding from The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation.
The funding, from two awards, will continue to support prison education and reentry programs for incarcerated and formerly incarcerated students through engagement with faculty, graduate, and undergraduate students from the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign.
Look for more details, soon, about how this exciting new funding will shape the program's future programming and goals.
