Class and privilege: the ultimate get-out-of-jail-free cards in America. While countless folx with previous convictions struggle to access jobs, housing, and voting rights, Donald Trump, with a felony arrest record, just became president. Let this serve as a reminder of who the system works for—and who it doesn’t. Justice in this country isn’t blind; it’s bought.

We bring recovery, advocacy, and support to those negatively impacted by the criminal legal system.
关于我们
Chainless Change is a 501(c)(3) peer-led Recovery Community Organization (RCO) dedicated to empowering individuals affected by addiction, mental health challenges, trauma, and contact with the criminal legal system in South Florida. We are driven by a deep commitment to provide the skills, tools, and opportunities needed for true recovery and transformation. Our mission goes beyond recovery—we are recovery-oriented abolitionists who envision a future where the prison industrial complex and its intertwined systems of oppression are dismantled. In their place, we advocate for restorative, rehabilitative, and transformative solutions that uplift individuals and communities, creating pathways to healing and justice. At Chainless Change, we believe in second chances and the power of community-led solutions to break the cycle of incarceration and build a more just, compassionate society.

HB 1365 criminalizes homelessness by prohibiting camping on streets, sidewalks, and parks, forcing individuals into encampments that are akin to concentration camps. This is another harmful attack on people who are unhoused, punishing them for their circumstances instead of addressing the root causes of poverty. We need real solutions and to hold developers who drive these inequities accountable. Contact your local representatives and share your ideas about how we can increase access to housing and economic opportunities as a way of combatting homelessness in Florida.
