More about the Pollen Initiative


Who we are

We are one of the first organizations to actively champion and build media centers in prisons across the US. Led by dedicated team members and volunteers, we provide the incarcerated with tools and platforms to tell their stories, build professional skills, and highlight the real impact of public policy on their lives and communities.


What we do

The Pollen Initiative facilitates scalable multimedia training models and programs such as a journalism guild, a filmmaking and broadcasting program and a professional writers’ pitch and workshops that can be replicated at other prisons around the country.
