State Reform Campaigns
STATE PROGRAMS: FAMM'S STATE WORK HAS TWO COMPONENTS: (1) PROJECT STATES, WHICH ARE THE STATES IN WHICH WE HAVE AGGRESSIVE, FULL-SCALE CAMPAIGNS FOR REFORM LED BY IN-STATE PROJECT DIRECTORS, AND (2) OPPORTUNITY STATES, WHICH ARE STATES IN WHICH WE SEE AN OPPORTUNITY FOR REFORM, WE SEEK TO BRING A UNIQUE OR ADDITIONAL VOICE TO THE DISCUSSION, OR ARE INVITED TO TESTIFY OR WEIGH IN ON A PROPOSED REFORM.GeographiesNot indicatedDatesJan 1, 2024 – Dec 31, 2024Source990No causes providedNo populations provided–$1MFamily Outreach and Advocacy Training
FAMILY OUTREACH AND STORYTELLING: FAMM'S GREATEST ASSET HAS ALWAYS BEEN THE STORIES OF OUR MEMBERS. FAMM MAINTAINS A LARGE NETWORK OF FAMILIES AND FORMERLY INCARCERATED PEOPLE ACROSS THE COUNTRY TO AID US IN OUR FIGHT FOR REFORM. WE PROVIDE INTENSIVE TRAINING IN STORYTELLING AND ADVOCACY, AND IN TURN HIGHLIGHT MEMBER STORIES AND CONNECT MEMBERS TO DIRECT ADVOCACY. SUCH OPPORTUNITIES INCLUDE TESTIFYING BEFORE LEGISLATORS, MEETING WITH LAWMAKERS AND OTHER OFFICIALS, AND SPEAKING WITH THE MEDIA.GeographiesNot indicatedDatesJan 1, 2024 – Dec 31, 2024Source990No causes providedNo populations provided–$1.7MFederal Sentencing Reform Initiatives
FEDERAL PROGRAMS: FAMM IS FOCUSED ON ELIMINATING FEDERAL MANDATORY MINIMUM SENTENCING LAWS AND IMPROVING ADVISORY GUIDELINES SO THAT JUDGES CAN MAKE INDIVIDUALIZED ASSESSMENTS OF OFFENDERS. WE ALSO WORK IN PRISON POLICY REFORM, SUPPORTING POLICIES THAT PROVIDE INCARCERATED INDIVIDUALS ACCESS TO MEANINGFUL WORK AND EDUCATIONAL OPPORTUNITIES, AS WELL AS SUBSTANCE ABUSE AND MENTAL HEALTH TREATMENT. WE BELIEVE THAT ALL CORRECTIONS FACILITIES SHOULD BE SAFE AND THAT INDIVIDUALS WHO ARE INCARCERATED SHOULD REMAIN CLOSE TO THEIR HOMES IN ORDER TO MAINTAIN IMPORTANT FAMILY BONDS. IN OUR WORK TO EDUCATE POLICYMAKERS ON THESE ISSUES, FAMM HOSTS CAPITOL HILL LOBBY DAYS, PANELS, AND BRIEFINGS; TESTIFIES BEFORE LEGISLATORS; AND ADVOCATES PRESIDENTIAL PARDONS AND COMMUTATIONS.GeographiesNot indicatedDatesJan 1, 2024 – Dec 31, 2024Source990No causes providedNo populations provided–$801.8K
