Community leaders, organizers, artists, workers, directly impacted people, and advocates will come together to help shape a vision for the next chapter of our democracy. #Next250 #NationalMobilization #PoweringTheMovement #FICPFM

Freedom delayed is freedom denied. On Juneteenth, we honor the generations who fought for freedom and those continuing that work today. What is one barrier to freedom that still needs to be dismantled in your community? #Juneteenth #FreedomDay #FICPFM

LGBTQ+ people are disproportionately impacted by the criminal legal system, and the disparities are especially stark for lesbian and bisexual women. Thank you to the Prison Policy Initiative for the research that helps expose these inequities and inform the fight for justice. #PrideMonth #LGBTQJustice

This Pride Month, we're highlighting Bethany Little and her work advancing LGBTQ+ inclusion in recovery spaces. Thank you for helping create communities where people can show up as their full selves.

A federal judge renewed protections allowing a group of transgender women in federal custody to remain in women's facilities while their lawsuit moves forward. At FICPFM, we believe every person deserves dignity, safety, and humane treatment while incarcerated. #PrideMonth

We've been working on something. Season One: Reimagining Reentry What happens after incarceration? What barriers still stand in the way? What does meaningful reentry actually look like?  We're sitting down with people who have lived it, studied it, and are working to change it. Coming soon. 🎙️ #ReimaginingReentry #FICPFM #PoweringTheMovement

Pride belongs in every movement for freedom.  At FICPFM, we recognize the leadership, resilience, and contributions of LGBTQ+ people across movements for justice, civic engagement, and collective power. Queer people have always been organizers, advocates, storytellers, and community builders. This Pride Month, we celebrate the directly impacted LGBTQ+ leaders continuing to shape a more just future for all of us. Happy Pride Month from FICPFM. 🏳️‍🌈 #FICPFMpride #PrideMonth #CelebratePride

Mental Health Awareness Month has to include system impacted people. Trauma, poverty, incarceration, and reentry are mental health issues too. Support should come before crisis. Care should come before punishment. Directly impacted people deserve care, dignity, and real support. #MentalHealthAwarenessMonth

FICPFM is a national network of organizations led by system impacted leaders, families, and communities who know what it means to survive systems that were never built for our healing. Across the country, our people are building spaces where support, connection, leadership, and collective care are part of the work. This Mental Health Awareness Month, we are honoring the network that keeps showing up to fight for a healthier and safer community for our people.

Chicago registration is open, and we want our Midwest family in the room. Scholarships are still available. Register now, apply for support if needed, and help make Chicago a powerful first stop for the 2026 FICPFM Regional Convenings. Chicago | July 17 to 19 bit.ly/FICPFM2026Chicago

This Memorial Day, we remember the veterans who died in service. We also recognize those who made it home, only to be lost to incarceration. Veterans impacted by incarceration deserve support, healing, housing, reentry, and a real pathway home. #FICPFM #MemorialDay

Mental Health Awareness Month has to be about more than awareness. 43% of people in state prisons and 44% of people in local jails have been diagnosed with a mental disorder. Prisons are not treatment centers. Jails are not crisis care. Not cages. Care. Source: Prison Policy Initiative #MentalHealthAwarenessMonth

Cinco de Mayo marks a victory against overwhelming odds. That same spirit lives on in communities organizing today against systems that continue to exclude and harm. Resistance is not history. It is ongoing. #CincoDeMayo #PeoplePower #FICPFM

Something big is coming. This week, we’re announcing the next chapter of how our movement gathers, builds, and grows across the country. Stay tuned. #FICPFM #RegionalConvening
