The Louisiana Stop Solitary Coalition seeks to end the use of solitary confinement by working with and for people who have experienced this inhumane practice. We do this by educating and engaging the public to demand their elected officials and government entities change the culture of prisons and jails.
During the 2020 legislative session, we won a ban on solitary for pregnant women. This session, we want to ban the use of solitary for people with serious mental illness and require training on de-escalation and the mental health consequences of solitary.
