We were just part of a press conference at the Capitol with @oksurvivorjustice. More to come!

🎂Today is April's birthday. While we are heartbroken she's celebrating another one behind bars, we are so proud of what she has accomplished this year -- from her PHI program work to getting published in multiple outlets. Wish her a happy birthday below and we will print and send belatedly. #FreeAprilWilkens

Visit oksurvivorjusticecoalition.org to learn how to help and to contact your Oklahoma Legislators. Voice your support of HB 1639 having retroactive relief. #FreeAprilWilkens #YesOnHB1639 #SurvivorsDeserveRealJustice #SurvivedAndPunished #OklahomasDaughters

From page 6 of the latest report on Sentencing Reform for Criminalized Survivors from @thesentencingproject . #FreeAprilWilkens #SurvivedAndPunished #SurvivorsDeserveRealJustice #OklahomasDaughters #HB1639 #CriminalizedSurvivors

Tell your legislator to pass HB 1639 with retroactivity by going to oksurvivorjusticecoalition.org and filling out the form on the @oksurvivorjustice website. HB 1639 is the most comprehensive law change to help survivors facing criminalization and prosecution. #SurvivorsDeserveRealJustice #SurvivedAndPunished #OKLeg #FreeAprilWilkens #OklahomasDaughters

66% of women in Oklahoma prisons state they were in a violent relationship within a year of being incarcerated on their current offense (Sharp, Jones, and McLeod 2014). #FreeAprilWilkens #Oklahoma #OKLeg #DV #SurvivedAndPunished
