Members of the media wishing to speak to WPA staff regarding WPA direct services, policy, research, or any issues relating to women and criminal justice may contact our Executive Office at 646-292-7742.

Members of our staff are available to speak with the media about a variety of criminal justice-related topics. WPA has extensive experience providing direct services to criminal justice-involved women. This gives us a unique perspective on policy issues related to the criminal justice and other public systems.

WPA’s Institute on Women & Criminal Justice works to create more effective approaches to dealing with women in the criminal justice system; Institute staff are available to discuss criminal justice-related research and policy with journalists.

“For women on either side of the border, evidence-based interventions and alternatives to incarceration are the best way to truly address the factors in women’s lives that lead to crime and are more likely to reduce the propensity for repeat offenses. ”
