This Mother's Day, take a few minutes to find out how you can help shape a society where no woman ever has to give birth while in shackles and chains.
Media Literacy Project, Strong Families, and Thousand Kites invite you to download our Mama's Day radio special. Broadcast it on your radio station or play it at a community meeting to spark a dialogue. With your support we'll send voices through barbed-wire to our millions of neighbors behind bars this Mama's Day.
In the U.S., we have a nation inside our nation.

Each year, thousands of pregnant women enter jail or prison, and many of them give birth behind bars. And as they struggle through the pain of labor and the stress of delivery, some find themselves wrenching at restraints.
Media Literacy Project, Strong Families, and Thousand Kites need your help to produce "Calls from Home: Mama's Day Special," a radio project that connects incarcerated mothers to their families, friends, and communities.
