In 2020, the Pennsylvania Institutional Law Project (PILP) began working more deeply to address the need for access to Medication for Opioid Use Disorder (MOUD) in Pennsylvania’s prisons and jails. Since then, PILP has released a groundbreaking report, that has been cited in news coverage on this important issue across the country. We’ve also held multiple events focused on MOUD and created a listserv for advocates and activists to share resources, and continue to litigate cases seeking access to MOUD for our clients. Let Us Live is a new project that centers on storytelling and uplifting the voices of people directly impacted by the overdose epidemic and incarceration, with the goal of reducing stigma and discrimination against incarcerated people with opioid use disorder (OUD) and increasing access to MOUD for people who are incarcerated and detained in Pennsylvania. The final storytelling project along with an update to our MOUD report will be released at our upcoming Annual Event!
