Prisoners' Legal Services of New York
Pursuing justice for incarcerated New Yorkers since 1976
We at PLS share your concerns about the conditions people incarcerated in DOCCS are facing during the ongoing correction officer strike.
We are currently collecting information about conditions to help us determine how best to respond. If you have a time-sensitive concern regarding your loved one’s health or safety, we recommend calling the facility and asking to speak to the Superintendent or, if it’s a mental health concern, the OMH Unit Chief.
Additionally, if you would like, you can call your state assemblyperson and/or state senator to express your concern about the conditions in DOCCS. Their information can be found at: https://elections.ny.gov/new-york-state-elected-officials
