The Petey Greene Program supplements education in jails, prisons, and detention centers by preparing volunteers (primarily university students) to provide free, quality tutoring and related programming to support the academic achievement of incarcerated people. The Petey Greene Program is transformative for volunteer tutors and incarcerated students alike. We imagine a future in which alumni volunteers, along with our formerly incarcerated students, are empowered to take on leadership roles that will re-imagine the criminal justice system. We envision a world in which all incarcerated people have access to high-quality academic programs.
The Petey Greene Program supplements education in jails, prisons, and detention centers by preparing volunteers (primarily university students) to provide free, quality tutoring and related programming to support the academic achievement of incarcerated people.
For more than a decade, the Petey Greene Program (PGP) has recruited and trained volunteers, primarily undergraduate and graduate students, to serve as tutors and teaching assistants in prison classrooms across the Northeast. In doing so, the PGP has provided individualized tutoring and support to incarcerated students and a window into the realities of mass incarceration for volunteers. The Program is named after Petey Greene, a formerly incarcerated 1960s community activist and television personality who dedicated his life to advocacy on behalf of people in prison. The Program was founded in 2007 and sent its first cohort of volunteers into AC Wagner Youth Correctional Facility in New Jersey in 2008. Over the next 10 years, the PGP has trained 3,500 volunteers and reached thousands of incarcerated students.
