It's #givingtuesday. This year, consider showing support for Transform Dane as we prepare to mail out care packages to WI jails & prisons. These are not just prisoners, they are our future neighbors & community. Connection rehabilitates & restores us. transformdane.com/home-2/support…
Thank you to Suzanna for this awesome homemade Transform Dane embroidery! Absolutely love it and it will hang in a spot of honor here in the Queer Compound! ❤️🧡💛💚🩵💜
NEW BLOG: "It becomes a very strange line to cross..finding myself in one room of addicts criminalizing addiction, only to be locked in a similar room of addicts, having our addictions criminalized. " transformdane.com/a-year-outside…
Transform Dane is @ the WI Capitol in support of AB604...a bipartisan bill that would support reentry from incarceration by providing released humans with healthcare. From Mark Rice: “The system must be fundamentally transformed so that health is prioritized over punishment. "
Transform Dane mailbox: Today's artist loves sketching. She requested pictures of actresses from classic movies to sketch from our direct mail program, and this was the result. Request direct mail: transformdane.com/direct-mail-pr… Support the program! transformdane.com/home-2/support…
NEW BLOG: "I owe much..gratitude to these human beings...criminals. They were..a literal captive audience for my Transgender Former Cop jail open mic. They looked past the..stigmas in a way that only those who have pleaded for the same from the world can." transformdane.com/soundofsilence/
Fantastic event by @thebiggaymarket, SpookyGay Market! Met tons of awesome people, had great conversations about needed reform and distributed plenty of stickers! Thanks to all who stopped by! #transformdane #danecountywi #incarcerationreform #nonprofit #outreach
EVENT ALERT! @transformdane will have a booth at The Big Gay Spooky Market, SUNDAY OCTOBER 26, 10-4. Stop by and chat for information, updates, support, stickers, frog mascots & more! The event is at the WI Rugby Sports Complex, Cottage Grove, WI. Hope to see you there!
@transformdane in support of No Kings Day 2025 ✊🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️
IMMEDIATE PRESS RELEASE. Although our work is focused on advocacy, awareness & outreach, every organization is composed of individuals, each with a unique journey. The origin of our journey is deeply rooted in this developing situation.
NEW BLOG POST: "My account is...retold not because I feel I am the most extreme case of systemic injustice...It is retold because my background, my education and my privilege give me a voice to tell it...my past contributions to it demand that I tell it" transformdane.com/a-rainbow-brid…
Another fantastic event, thank you to Deborah Zalensne and Chris Blackwell. The statistics on solitary confinement prove total system failure. Mental health worsens, recidivism soars, staffing is taxed and costs are substantially higher. We all suffer, we all lose.

Breathtaking work... Thank you Journey to Justice. Solitary Confinement harms everyone involved; through exacerbation of mental health conditions, violations of constitutional & human rights, increased rates of recidivism & increased strain on jail and prison budgets & staffing.
Members of Transform Dane are currently attending the Journey for Justice Tour on Madison's West side....an organized campaign on reforms to the overuse of solitary confinement in incarcerated settings. Blessed to have these warriors in our community. journeytojusticetour.com
In May 2025, a federal lawsuit was initiated in the W. WI District regarding extreme DCJ confinement conditions. The issue of ethical confinement is a constantly evolving issue. This challenges these issues, especially as they pertain to Constitutional rights of LGBTQ+ Americans
NEW BLOG POST....discussing reproductive health in DCJ & beyond. "Committing a crime has a prescribed outcome of potentially being incarcerated. Not trapped in a jail cell with blood dripping down your leg, or losing your own reproductive autonomy." transformdane.com/dear-mom-a-per…
Wis. Open Records Law: "Transparency is an essential function of a representative government". In environments like jails and prisons, as well as other encounters with law enforcement, this is especially true. The doors may not be open but the records are. Know your rights!
Mail is a lifeline in jails and prisons. @transformdane kept every Eli letter safe in a binder...this one represents a single month of mail. Write to your incarcerated loves, even if you haven't sent "snail mail" in a decade. Even if you feel you "don't know what to say".
