Prisoncast!

Prisoncast! is an audio & journalism project from WBEZ in Chicago & Illinois Public Radio stations to serve people incarcerated in Illinois & their loved ones outside. Everything you hear on the show comes directly from an idea, question or request we get from you on the inside, or your families. Our show airs statewide in Illinois on NPR stations, and we're trying it out on tablets! Our goal is to create an experience families can share, even when separated by miles of road, brick walls and wire fencing. We produce journalism and interview segments that provide practical, actionable information and accurate news based on what you tell our journalists you need. Write us at: Prisoncast!, c/o WBEZ, 848 E. Grand Ave., Chicago, IL. 60611. Loved ones can email prisoncast@wbez.org or leave a voicemail at 312-893-2931.
