Meet our Founder and Executive Director, Marvina Haynes

Thank You for Making Wrongful Incarceration Day a Success! We want to extend our heartfelt gratitude to everyone who joined us on October 2 for the State of Emergency: The Fight Against Wrongful Incarceration. Your Impact: • At 12:00 PM, we stood strong together during the banner drop over I-94, making sure our message was seen loud and clear. • At 6:00 PM, your powerful presence at Governor Tim Walz’s mansion amplified the voices of those wrongfully incarcerated and their families. Together, we shared stories that resonated deeply and demanded justice for those still imprisoned for crimes they didn’t commit. Your support brings us one step closer to real change. This fight continues, and we can’t do it without you! Stay Connected and make a donation: Mnwcjr.org Let’s keep the momentum going and continue to stand in solidarity. Thank you for being part of this crucial day and for helping us make a difference! Together, we demand justice.
