Our members are formerly incarcerated people and their loved ones, yet we invite anyone with an interest in criminal justice reform to join our network.
We have VOTE chapters in: Baton Rouge, Lafayette, New Orleans and Shreveport, and each chapter meets once a month to break bread, strategize and organize.
