This toolkit is intended for advocates who would like to work, or are working, with local or state corrections or detention agencies to develop and implement more just and humane policies toward LBGT people. This could include statewide LGBT equality groups, state or local transgender organizations, legal advocacy groups, or groups of grassroots activists, as well as organizations already working on prison reform or criminal justice issues that want to incorporate the concerns of LGBT people in their work. We hope this toolkit will provide an introduction to the issues and policies that affect LGBT people in jails, prisons, and detention facilities, and provide practical suggestions for advocacy work with these agencies.
