GreenPrisons is at the Sustainable Prisons Project

GreenPrisons has had the opportunity to participate in the second national gathering of the Sustainable Prison Project (SPP). SPP, funded in part by the National Science Foundation (NSF, is part of a national movement to bring science into correctional facilities. The project focuses on all areas of sustainability but particularly those that promote the recovery of endangered species. From butterflies to spotted frogs this project has provided offender jobs, education and benefitted the larger communities. Check out their website for more information.
