Private Prisons: The Public's Problem

Event is free and open to the public.

The three companies that run for-profit prisons in Arizona have all submitted bids to take over New Hampshire's prison system. Caroline Isaacs, who directs the AFSC's Arizona Program in Tucson, has thoroughly investigated their performance and found it lacking.  Her report, published in Feburary, revealed widespread and persistent problems in the areas of safety, accountability, and cost. 

She will share her findings during a three-day speaking tour in New Hampshire, whicih will come to Nashua's on Wednesday, September 5, from 7 p.m. - 9 p.m.  

Sponsored by the Nashua UU Social Justice Committee.  Free and open to all.
