Over 2 years, Equivolve has worked with partners in Alabama & Indiana to identify effective partnerships that can improve access to #postsecondary opportunities & improve #equity. Read what we learned and how other states/regions can apply these takeaways.

Children of incarcerated parents are disproportionately children of color. Black children are 7x more likely to have an incarcerated parent than white children. In OK, data shows that Native children are twice as likely as white children to have an incarcerated parent #okleg
Over 2.7 million children in the United States have a parent who is incarcerated — enough children to fill 5,100 average-sized public schools. thenext100.org/we-are-not-co…
