The Prisons Foundation is pleased to announce that Julie Stewart will appear at this week's Justice Sundays event at the Prisons Gallery of Art, 1600 K Street NW, Suite 501, Washington, DC. Julie Stewart is the founder of Families Against Mandatory Minimums (FAMM), a national nonprofit organization established in 1991 to challenge inflexible and excessive penalties required by mandatory sentencing laws. Inspired by her brother, a non-violent, first-time drug offender who was sentenced to five years in a federal prison for growing marijuana, Stewart rallied for fairer sentencing laws. FAMM has paved the way for legislative sentencing reforms and judicial discretion in federal drug cases for over 35,000 drug defendants. Live music will precede and follow Ms. Stewart's presentation at 3 PM.
