    Kyes Teaching Volunteers

    The Alabama Prison Arts + Education Project exists to serve the people of the state of Alabama, particularly those directly impacted by the prison system, their families, and their communities. In addition to classes and programs offered inside of state prisons, we are in the process of launching a Community Education Resources Center in Birmingham, Alabama that will provide classes and other supports for students returning to their communities. Stay tuned for more developments as we build that program.


     

    Are you, a friend, or a loved one currently or formerly incarcerated? There are many ways for you to access our resources, including:

    • Take an arts class

    • Take a community education class

    • Apply to the college degree program

    • Sign up to receive The Warbler

    • Check out other our community partner page for information on other like-minded programs

    • See a list of other higher education in prison programs and prison arts initiatives across the United States

    A Note on Language

    APAEP uses human-centered language. For example, we refer to our students as students, and individuals who have experienced incarceration as system-impacted or people who are currently/formerly incarcerated.
     
    To learn more, and see other examples, please read this open letter from Eddie Ellis, Founder of Center for NuLeadership on Urban Solutions, the language guide created by the Underground Scholars Initiative, the “Words Matter” Initiative from The Fortune Society, and FWD.US’s People First Campaign.
