VICTORY: Solitary confinement is forever banned in NYC! Today's vote is for Layleen, Kalief, Brandon, Erick & every person who was tortured or killed by solitary. Thank you to the Speaker, Public Advocate, & Council for overriding the Mayor's veto & making 549A the law of NYC!

People released from incarceration are 42X more likely to die from overdose in the 2 weeks following their release when compared to the general population. Visit treatmentnotjail.com/take-action to urge our legislators to PASS @TNJAct to do something about this & SAVE LIVES

83% of people in NY prisons have a substance use disorder yet 3/4 receive no treatment while incarcerated. This system only exacerbates underlying root causes. Visit treatmentnotjail.com/take-action to urge our gov to PASS TNJ to end the cruel & senseless revolving door of incarceration.

Rikers Island is the largest mental healthcare provider in the state & by far the most expensive. It costs taxpayers $556,539 to incarcerate 1 person in NYC Jails/year for a total $1.3B annually. Imagine investing that $$ in support instead of punishment: treatmentnotjail.com/take-action

Less than 1 in 5 of the ~50% of individuals w/mental health issues at Rikers receive any sort treatment in jail. Meanwhile studies show that incarceration exacerbates mental health problems. Imagine investing our $$ on a mental health system that works: treatmentnotjail.com/take-action

It's Mental Health Awareness Month & today advocates are traveling to Albany from all over NY to demand passage of @TNJAct. For decades NY has funneled those w/mental health needs into our jails/prisons. It's abhorrent and it has got to change. We need #TreatmentNotJail TODAY
