Dignity and Power Now (DPN) is a Los Angeles–based, Black and Brown-led grassroots organization founded in 2012 to secure dignity and power for incarcerated people, their families, and communities. We are building a future where communities thrive by investing in care and divesting from policing and incarceration.
Grounded in prison abolition, transformative justice, and community healing, our mission is simple and bold: to build people-powered movements that make cages obsolete and create real safety rooted in accountability, healing, and love.
Many of our team members and leaders are directly impacted by incarceration and police violence. This work is personal. It is communal. And it is urgent.
