FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Reverend Jesse Jackson takes his annual trek to Cook County Jail
Chicago, IL-The Reverend Jesse Jackson and Bishop Tavis Grant, the acting national executive director of the Rainbow PUSH Coalition will visit the Cook County Jail this Saturday, January 21, 2023 at10am. This is the first leg of Reverend Jackson’s “Keep Hope Alive Tour,” that he’s making around the country to reconnect returning citizens to the fabric of family and community.

“We cannot throw people away; especially those who are seeking redemption and wholesome reconnection to our communities. Too many are incarcerated today and are consumed in a for-profit system of criminal justice. “Too many spend more time in pre-trial detention without being sentenced. We must break this cycle with comprehensive reform that allows people to regain a place of value in our communities”, says Jackson.

Bishop Tavis Grant, the acting national executive director, will accompany Reverend Jackson, along with a host of elected officials, pastors, and stakeholders. “Reverend Jackson has set a course to redeem the lost. We walk in his footsteps to extend ourselves in this mission to save lives.

These men and women still bare the opportunity to be examples of change and transformation. Some of our greatest contributors to our society have gone through the prison system and came out to never return. “Over 5,000 inmates men and women are housed here. Many are parents, students, many are first time offenders. We have a moral obligation to offer them every opportunity to come out of here better than they came here,” says Grant.

The Rainbow Push Coalition will talk to inmates and their families about enrolling in educational programs, substance and mental health treatment, being registered to vote, and coming out of the institution with a blueprint for a better life.
