Description:	Beyond These Walls is a non-profit based in the Pacific Northwest that works to achieve justice and liberation for LGBTQIA2S+ people incarcerated in the Pacific Northwest and the world through advocacy, service, and organizing. Beyond These Walls was founded in 2011 as a project of the National LGBTQ Task Force. It started as a project to send cards to LGBTQ prisoners during the holidays, but they decided to try to extend community to LGBTQ family living behind bars. Over the years they have evolved into a robust community of people offering a number of programs to support LGBTQ prisoners. Beyond These Walls is a Trans led organization with an exclusively LGBTQ staff and advisory committee. They believe in an LGBTQ community without conditions, where they welcome and embrace people trying to be a part of their community, even if they’ve made mistakes. They believe the criminal justice system is inherently flawed and if people who are locked up are asking us for help right now, they have to answer their calls. In addition to supporting members of the LGBTQ community while incarcerated, Beyond These Walls also provides Reentry Support: * $14,000 reentry assistance and support to individuals in prison * 32 care packages that include an outfit to wear on release * 45 direct cash support to both currently and formerly incarcerated * Provided LGBTQIA+ related training to Washington State DOC Reentry teams
