If you want more events like our Women in Prison Conference and more work to lift up the voices of women in prison and build a more gender-responsive justice system: donate! Your support is vital to growing our Women's Justice Project. Thank you! #WIPConf forms.donorsnap.com/form?id=f1f1dd…
Our next speaker, our Women's Justice Project Director Julia Yoshimoto will be talking about our #HerStoryOregon Survey of women incarcerated at Coffee Creek in #Oregon. That's just one of the initiatives our WJP has launched. #WIPConf ojrc.info/herstory-orego…
Our #HerStoryOregon Survey reports so far (more to come) focus on women's experience of intimate partner violence and also mental health, physical health & addiction. #WIPConf ojrc.info/herstory-orego… ImageImage
We're grateful to @PSUCriminology and Professor Mark Leymon for their participation in the HerStory Survey, laying the groundwork for ethical and well-organized research, and collating and analyzing data for survey results. #WIPConf
@PSUCriminology Some major trends in what we saw of what women wanted to talk about in the survey were intimate partner violence, mental/physical health & addiction, parenting/motherhood. #HerStoryOregon #WIPConf
@PSUCriminology 1/3 women surveyed were houseless at the time of arrest. #HerStoryOregon #WIPConf
@PSUCriminology This graphic shows survey results related to histories of trauma reported by women. #HerStoryOregon #WIPConf Image
@PSUCriminology This graphic shows rates of intimate partner violence/#domesticviolence contributing to women's involvement with the criminal justice system #HerStoryOregon #WIPConf Image
@PSUCriminology #Domesticviolence can lead women to the criminal justice system thru direct and indirect routes. Direct could be coercion into committing crimes. Indirect could be using drugs/alcohol to cope with trauma and subsequently committing crime to obtain drugs. #WIPConf #HerStoryOregon
@PSUCriminology To read our reports from the #HerStoryOregon survey, visit our website. ojrc.info/herstory-orego… #WIPConf
@PSUCriminology Our next speakers are women currently incarcerated at Coffee Creek Correctional Facility. Out of respect for their privacy, we will not live tweet their remarks. We're grateful to our guests for their willingness to share and to @ORCorrections for allowing them to come. #WIPConf

🚨Did you know that Oregon has NO minimum age of prosecution for kids? Tomorrow, we have a chance to change that when the House Judiciary Committee holds a public hearing on HB 2327, a bill we’re supporting to introduce a minimum prosecution age of 12. Image reads "Action Alert" with an image of a loud
From 2017-2021, more than a thousand Oregon children aged 7-11 had some form of contact with the juvenile justice system or were in a situation where they could be arrested, charged, and prosecuted in juvenile court.
Subjecting children to the court process and putting them in juvenile detention is harming them. They will face more barriers to education and employment and their physical and mental health will worsen. BIPOC, LGBTQIA+ and low-income children are disproportionately affected.

New York City is not alone. There is a gap between the media coverage of shootings and the number of incidents in Portland.

This then, leads the public and lawmakers to call for increase police budgets and number of officers on the streets. Let's call it what it is: Copaganda. Image
The increase in gun violence that we have seen over the last two years has little to do with police budgets and staffing, but rather, has a direct correlation to the Covid-19 pandemic and economic burden it has placed on communities.
We know that investing in upstream services and investing in infrastructure such as street lighting and traffic calming barrels has reduced violent crime, while the number of officers has not shown any correlation with the number of crimes in Portland. Image

This report from Independent Police Review is called "Lessons Learned: City's response to protests exposed vulnerabilities in Portland's police accountability system," but we don't think the lesson has been learned.
portland.gov/sites/default/…
"Hundreds of hours of video footage showed repeated incidents of officers resorting to physical control methods with both passive protestors and aggressive resistors."
The report does not include that Oregon legislators rolled back teargas and impact munition restrictions this past legislative session in 2022.

"The [Portland] police bureau's own data shows that the rate of violent rate is almost half of what it was 30 years ago" -@elliottyoungpdx

koin.com/nwpolitics/eye…
"Despite what you may hear in the local news, neither violent crime or property crime is spiking in the city."
On houselessness, and addressing serious concerns in safety: "What we are seeing is the result of 30+ years of public disinvestment in social services, increase in police budgets, and an economic model that has benefited the few, at the expense of many."

🧵Thread on crime rates in Portland 👇
84.8% of crime from Feb. 2021-2022 has been property crime or society offenses (drug offenses, animal cruelty, weapon law violations, prostitution)

portlandoregon.gov/police/71978
Overall crime rate in the last seven years stayed fairly steady, with a slight increase after the beginning of the Covid-19 pandemic. The average in the last seven years is still sitting at 84% of crimes being non-violent. (that's as far back as the website goes) Monthly neighborhood offens...

🧵 "Where are we now? From Black Lives Matter uprising to tough-on-crime backlash, and what's happening in Portland."
A timeline:
1960s: Civil Rights Movement
1960s-1970s: Tough-on-crime rhetoric & declaration of War on Drugs
1970s: Onset of mass incarceration and drastic increase in policing
2013-2020: Black Lives Matter Uprising
Now: Increased tough-on-crime rhetoric & policies
Shortly after the Civil Rights movement in the 1960s, widespread tough-on-crime narratives rolled in the creation of the New Jim Crow- mass incarceration.
