Ciudadanos por la Reforma Penitenciaria will host its 15th Annual Legislative Education Day en Tuesday, June 16, 2026, de 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM en el Capitol Lawn in Lansing.

This year’s theme is “Building Bridges to a Safer Michigan: Advancing Justice, Supporting Families, and Strengthening Communities.”

For 15 years, CPR’s Legislative Education Day has brought families, advocates, community members, and policymakers together to address issues in Michigan’s justice system.

The 2026 event will focus on rehabilitation, accountability, family connection, reentry, and policies that affect incarcerated people and their loved ones.

Topics will include oversight, visitation, access to programming, financial burdens within the prison system, and conditions affecting incarcerated people, families, and the communities people return home to.

The event will feature Priscilla Bordayo, Survivor, National Advocate, and Transformational Speaker with Crime Survivors Speak, as a special guest.

Cassie Larrieux of Safe & Just Michigan will also speak about the report “Debtors in Prison” and the impact of financial burdens within the prison system.

CPR will also have its model solitary cell experience available to help attendees better understand the realities of isolation.

Families are encouraged to schedule meetings with their legislators on the day of the event. If you are not able to schedule a meeting, you can still visit legislative offices with materials provided at the event and follow up afterward.
